Database date fields

[chief]

I'm trying to change article dates - begin (article_begin), end (article_end), created (article_created). I can change the begin and end dates in the backend. I can change the begin, end, and created dates in database using phpmyadmin.

However, when I try to refer to those dates for sorting of an rss feed (in feed.ini.php), I can't seem to get it to recognize the changes - when I ask it to sort by "livedate", instead of sorting by article_begin, it sorts by article_created. And the real kicker is that even after I edit article_created to reflect a different date, it still sorts and displays the original article_created value in the feed.

Any ideas? Ultimately, I'd like the feed to be sorted by livedate.

Maybe your feeds.ini.php is not well formatted. Be sure to use the default INI-file and change the INI section only.

This is the line you need:

Code: Select all

orderBy = "livedate" ; possible: livedate, killdate, createdate, changedate
