Question

I have a TWiki app that gets created at the beginning of an incident, then gets updated heavily until the incident is resolved. The problem with this, is the one hour per forced revision thing. So the first revision says it was created almost an hour after the topic was created.

What I'd like is to have an easy way to have a new revision forced very early on in the procedure. Maybe just a url parameter that says new revision. Or, use some other variable to pull the topic creation time.

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

Hi Mattew, see ForceNewRevisionCheckBox and let us know if that doesn't answer your question. There should be some options in there that you could use. For example (six spaces)* Set RELEASEEDITLOCKCHECKBOX="on" in each of your TWikiApplication topics.

KeithHelfrich, i believe you are forgetting to set the status to answered questions

the correct syntax appears to be

(six spaces) * Set FORCENEWREVISIONCHECKBOX = checked

Thanks for the help.
