Within the Comments component, would is be possible to update the TimeStamp to show the date and time a comment was made, rather than an accumulative time lapse? The date and time is captured in the data table, but there is no option to display this alongside each comment which would be very useful.
I’ve asked for this before too. It could be as “simple” as a toggle between “Friendly Timestamp” or “Formatted Timestamp”. @tristan
@Robert_Petitto agreed - would make the functionality of the component itself a lot more user friendly.
i am using the comments component to leave notes on a CRM of when we have tried to contact a customer. If they don’t answer in the AM, we should attempt another day in the PM. the trouble with the current display is that is simply says ‘2 days ago’, or ‘18 Mar’ as opposed to the date, and then the actual time the note was left. I woudl welcome alternative work arounds too but i dont think there are any within the component itself.
You can always concatenate the timestamp with the comment itself using a template column and use that template column as the message.
You can even use HTML in the template column:

So you can! I guess its a suitable workaround - appreciate it. Now we have both, as i see no option to remove the default timestamp next to the name of the user commenting. Ideally, I would haev the data shown in that field as a column with blank fields but that defaults to Just Now, and there’s no option for Custom either.
Thanks @Robert_Petitto
