I think it's very useful create the creation date and modification date field, with the hours, minutes, seconds as well.
Many times it's needed to have those values in components.

This change just need few modifications in the output fo the jcook builder, because the data could be easily stored into the DB and retrieved from, in the correct format, just changing the type of database field, and few lines of code in the output layout.

Have you been using the wizards? If you don't auto create the created and modified date fields, add the relevant datetime fields and name them as per auto generated field names.

Then, connect these 2 datetime fields to the wizard and re add the fields to your layouts.

Let me first state that this is an amazing and fascinating product exactly what I was looking for. In just a few hours (listening to the very well made and clearly understandable videos learning doing) I completed and installed my first component. I am now in the second refining phase. I will make a recommenation in JED. Thanks for the effort in creating such a great product. Incidentally some of the best Joomla extension I use are of French origin !
