Josua,

Remember that tiddlers you may import, or other files may bring created or 
modified dates with them. These dates can be meaningful so I recommend 
against changing them. I am building additional import tools but they are 
not ready yet, however post import you get a list of imported tiddlers you 
can extract using the list[] operator, a button that set a new import-date 
field to now or the import tiddlers created date, using $timestamp=no would 
record the import date without changing the import tiddlers created and 
modified dates. Giving what you want but retaining fundamental information 
that may prove useful in the future.

Don't compromise your future!

Regards
Tony
