"Last modified" footer should be displayed as absolute time when the wiki page is printed

[rux@…]

"Last modified" footer is nice for browsing. However, it is outdated and redundant when the page is printed out.

The following patch fixes this issue:

trac/htdocs/css/wiki.css

 #overview .comment { padding: 1em 0 0 }
 
 @media print {

+ th.diff, td.diff, div.trac-modifiedby { display: none }
 }
 
 /* Styles for the TracGuideToc wikimacro */

Is it? If you want to remove it, you can easily customize the CSS of your own site. Just add the corresponding entry to a custom stylesheet.

Personally, I rather like to know the last change date of a printed document. Except that we display it as "3 months ago", which defeats the whole purpose :) We should switch the display to absolute time when printing.

It's quite acceptable to me. Thanks a lot.

Fixed in [10740]: when printing, the age indication is replaced with an absolute time.

I think your definition of 'easily' is not the same as mine, Would you post the code and what file it to go into please? At the moment I'm going to have to hack the installed wiki.css file.
