Can you do the same in articles of section “Documentation centre”?

 

Now, members with privilegies of edit this section can see all dates of modification (in the link “History”). I use this to see if the Spanish version has the same date as the English version. But I need  go to other page, and the normal members and guests can not see the last date.

100% agree, I would also add a version number if possible.

Perhaps now it has less sense.

 

On last update of “FAQ” section, the way of writing articles has been changed. When an article is open for editing, all three languages are open and all can be edited at the same time (there is only one common modification date for all three).

Hello,

 

I added the date of last update to the articles of the “Documentation centre”. The date may be different from one language to the other.

 

Indomini16, we have an internal version number, but it is completely meaningless. For example, the version number for the new article “Can I change my username?” is 816 for the English and French versions and 972 for the Spanish version. What information would you like to grasp with a version number?

Using radom number isn't that usefull but in general version numbers are 1.0.0 where the first digit is for structural or bigger change, the second one is for chapter modification (inclusion or suppresion) and the last one is for small change like correction or wording adjustement.

Always look on the bright side of life!

Thanks. We currently don't maintain such meaningful version numbers, and I'm not sure it's worth the extra work.

Ok, looking at the article history I thought the date was common to all languages and the system did not take into account if the text was modified or not in all languages. 🤣

 

Perhaps… can you mark (eg. with italic or bold) in each language of the history the latest version? To be able to see, on a single page, if a version in a language may be outdate.
