There's a fairly obvious line of code in the plugin that includes:
<<newJournal \"YYYY/MM/DD - hh:0mm\ ......
but I think that was an oversight on my part from your suggestion of:
YYYY.0MM.0DD_0hh:0mm
The slashes and formatting are more for Canadian notation, as is the lack of a
leading 0 on the hours as well.
However, I see that without the leading 0, this could cause issues with
sorting.
I usually add to the title of the Status Update so that it looks like:
20120/03/13 - 9:15 - Replied to a post on Google Groups
So, I think replacing my missed leading 0 will be a good start, but you raise
an interesting question:
Do you change the fuctionality so that it sorts on Tiddler Modification Date
(which may be logical for Status Updates),
or do you stick with the Tiddler Title, which is easier for the user to modify
(and thus affect the sort)?
Sounds like another checkbox item - "Sort on Tiddler Modification Date" - which
defaults to Title if unselected.
Another one for the list!
Let me know if you can plug away at any of it! I'll attempt it in the next
couple of weeks, need to get a few things off my plate first.
Cheers,
David.
