Something interesting I came across which I'd like to query the rest of you about:
Today I found a links entry in my "What's New" database even though I hadn't validated any entries today. Looking in my validate list via the admin manager, I see that someone modified an old links entry and resubmitted it to be validated. Putting 2+2 together
, it appears that modified entries are showing up in "What's New" before being validated.
I verified this by creating my own entry and changing the modify date so it wasn't new. I then modified it and then, without validating it, I rebuilt the database and voilla, it's in "What's New"!
I'm using a modified version of Megalinks 2.0 so I cannot say that this is unique to me or not. Can anyone else check this out?
