| Description | I just found an odd bug in Composr v10 which also likely exists in v11.
Let's say user A makes a forum post at 12:00:01 AM. User B makes a forum post at 12:00:46 AM (Note the third number is seconds). Posts show up in the correct order... A followed by B. But if B goes and edits their post, because the add/edit time does not have seconds in it, the seconds get dropped and so the effective times get changed to 12:00:00 AM. This then causes the order of the posts to be User B followed by user A. Oops! The date/time fields for metadata add and edit times need to support seconds and maintain them on edit. |

Suggestion: Add / attach seconds as a hidden value on the edit screen. Maintain the seconds value on save (even if the minutes / hours are changed). Do this on all time fields, and make sure getting dates from post/get params also looks for this special hidden value.
