TW5: manipulate the modified field

[rooster91an]

Hi there,
I'm in an project where are older tiddlers manually put into a new tiddlywiki. For sorting purposes it would be fine if I could manipulate the modified field of those tiddlers.
I tried the following:

<$button>
<$action-setfield $tiddler="Modified Test" $field="modified" $value="201408050000000" />
change modified field test
</$button>

but TW5 closes these action with an actualized modified field...

Is there a way to manipulate the modified field of tiddlers?

Thank you very much.

Regards
Oliver

Unfortunately you may have to either modify some internal working of tiddlywiki or use another field for this.

Hi Oliver

Hmmm I think this is worth fixing. I've added an option for 5.0.10 to the action-setfield widget allowing the updating of the timestamp to be suppressed:
