That gives me the info but I was looking for something a little more flexible. Like being able to insert a tag into a page that will get expanded out to a last update timestamp for a specific page. That way I can include it in a table that contains other info as well.
Something like: {{LASTUPDATE:Page_Title}}
That would look up the last update timestamp for the "Page Title" wiki page and insert that timestamp.
Already requested in 2006.
BugZilla Search:
(bug 6092[1]) Create colon parserfunction version of {{REVISIONID}}, {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}} etc. that take pagename as parameter
{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP:Page Title}}

The way I understand it after reading that bugzilla entry is that it was requested, added, but then removed. I've found a way around with some perl<->mysql scripting that so far is working to my purposes. But this kind of magic word would be a whole lot easier. It's kind of hard to figure out if this feature will be added or not. I'll think I'll just clean up my perl code and move along unless there's something that can be done to help that bugzilla entry end up getting resolved into a new feature. Thanks.
