Question

I am looking for an easy way to make NEW and UPDATED icons disappear after a configurable number of days.

The reason is, that some TWiki users like cluttering overview topics with those icons. But nobody ever cleans it up. So at some time in future, everything will be labeled NEW UPDATED. Manually cleaning up these icons is very time consuming, so I am looking for an automated way.

I had a try with SpreadSheetPlugin, but it is also very difficult to write an expression, that has the desired behavior. I'm afraid nobody will want to write a two-line expression just to have their icons disappearing automatically.

Thanks for your help, Alex

Sorry, I don't get the point. How do your use this SINCE variable?

It doesn't. Although it should work. frown Hoped you could make it run. wink
