Stream Entries > Modified

[mikeuk]

Greetings,

I would like a stream entry to affect the modified at entry. At the moment placing a comment in the stream of a contact does not change when the modified value.

Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction, please?

Mike

So if I understand you correctly you want to auto-update the modifiedAt field value of the Contact record after a stream message has been posted. If so you need:
1. To make the Note entity (entity that manages the Stream posts) entity customizable create the file /custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/scopes/Note.json with content as follows:

{"customizable":true}

2. Administration -> Clear Cache -> Refresh a web page
3. Open Administration -> Entity Manager -> Note -> Formula -> add formuls as follows:

ifThen(
    entity\isNew(),
    record\update('Contact', parentId, modifiedAt, datetime\now())
);

Hello - we'd like to make this enhancement too, but it looks like something has changed more recently - are there any updated instructions? We made the json change and followed the process, but it didn't work. We requested the eblasoft extension, but it never arrived.
