Hello all,

I’ve set up an Entry model, which acts\_as\_versioned. Everything is  
working perfectly, but I want to store the timestamp on which a version  
is created somewhere. I googled to no avail, so hopefully one of you  
guys cracked this puzzle already?

cheers,  
bartz

The plugin doesn’t do anything like that. You’ll have to come up with  
your own solution, probably involving an after\_save callback on the  
versioned model.
