I apologize for what is probably a common question but using the search function and scanning the documentation, I was not able to find a clear answer.

I want my album to show the "Last Changed" date instead of the creation date. One thread alluded to changing the theme templates, but didnt say what to change. I'm fairly new and need more specific instructions.

Can someone help? Thanks!

Edit to add: I found this : http://gallery.menalto.com/node/57589
Thanks again!

Theme?
what date? There is a few places where date is used. Do you want the word "Date:" changed to "Last Changed:" as well? Please provide more info than you think you need to provide.

When looking at a list of albums, either in the root or in sub-albums, it shows "Date" in the information block below the thumbnail. The date itself is driven by the creation date of the album but is editable in the "edit album" screen. Without manually going in and changing the date every time I update an album, is there a way to make that album's data block show the last time it was changed? Or to take that line of data out of the display altogether?

This thread asked a similar question: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/43492
But the answer provided is too vague. I dont know what should be changed in the files mentioned.

{g->block type="core.ItemInfo"
                          item=$child
                          showDate=true
						showOwner=$showOwner
                          showSize=true
       		          showViewCount=true
                          showSummaries=true
                          class="giInfo"}

Change the true to false for the items you don't want shown.
