File Attachment Date and Time

Jeff_Lang

I've seen a few people ask for the date and time to show on file attachments in the Drag/Drop control, so here is the customization that we use to display the date and time on file attachments when viewing on the portal

@Jeff_Lang thank you for this modification. I was just going to raise feature request like this and found it :) I like it. Here are some more suggestions:

• dates are not visible by files with long names -> put dates to separate line
• change icon by filetype
• order attachments by date (or more advanced: option to choose order type)
• add user who attached the file to the info (new line again)
• change file attachment badge when new attachment (-n hours from page refresh?) is added
• all above mentioned options to be easily customizable in source code (variables)
• it would be nice to add some screenshots to show anyone what does it do before downloading
• add how to install it for less skilled users

Thanks.

I found some other requests/discussions for File attachments. Here are the links:

• expand that File Name with the Title from the Mail: https://community.cireson.com/discussion/503/file-name-for-file-attachments
• preview file attachment: https://community.cireson.com/discussion/1054/preview-file-attachments-on-workitems

I tried this extension but the date on the filename gets cut off when being displayed in the portal. Is there a way to just expose the AddedDate attribute on a line below the filename?
