Frontpage 2003 Published Site Date Problems

Still a Newbie but hey everyone I am learning every day

[Hoppo]

Website 2003 edit/author controls transferred to me from a passing stranger, who set up a website for me, originally as as a favour.

Have since made only a few typographic corrections, because let's be honest, I am scared out of me wits of messing it up. The corrections are okay, so what's the problem.

The date on the page corrected was showing the correct date on the day that I pubished, (top right hand of screen), the bottom text where it says, 'this site was last updated' also agreed. Well heck, that's okay until I noticed that all the other pages of the whole site are still showing a date that is three days old.........and that was almost a week ago......and the last page that I did update has not changed either.

What's happening people, should I go back to gravediggin or what? Any ides gratefully received.

Hi Hoppo,

First for the sake of peace of mind, you might want to think of doing a back of the website on your local computer.

I am not sure why the date on the other pages is not updated, maybe cuz you didn't updated those pages?

Also, if you want all the pages to be showing the same date, than you can use the page include function for inserting a footer and before publishing, just add and remove a space within the footer, so it should be considered as a change and then publish the site.

I hope this helps.

If that's the Timestamp webbot. It inserts a date and time stamp that corresponds to the last time the page was edited or automatically updated. So, if you didn't actually edit the page and save it then the timestamp won't be updated when you publish.
