after some digging around I found the prettydate function in gluon.tools. If I "from gluon.tools import prettydate" directly in the page.html view I no longer get an error. If I do the same thing but only in the controller it still does not work.
Any ideas what characteristics of my app may cause this behavior? Since it does not seem to be the default behavior (at least not on a fresh app, as described in previous post) Thanks Vincent On Jul 18, 4:01 pm, Vincent <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have an existing web2py app called "dispersion" to which I am trying > to add the plugin_wiki. > > I added the plugin through the design interface, created an editor > group and added my user to it.
