Timestamps on Approved Comments

by mraible :: Rate this Message:

Hello all,

I have comment moderation turned on for my blog for two reasons 1) it allows me to edit the HTML mistakes people make and make my comments look good and 2) it allows me to delete the spam.

However, I've noticed that the comments get the timestamp of when I approve it, rather than the timestamp of when it was posted. I think it should be the time it's posted b/c otherwise it looks like everyone commented at the same time.

Is this a bug or "as designed"?

Thanks,

Matt

I think that's a bug. Editing a comment should not impact the order in
which comments are displayed. We probably need a createdTime and an
updatedTime for commentsi (I think we just have postTime now).
Comments should be displayed in reverse chronological order by
creationTime.
