Like many who came before me... I have a problem with the way drupal 7 allows me to control the display of the post datetime of a node.
I would like to be able to control the display of the post date as a standard field so that I can just simply order it within my fields. I know that I can edit the node.tpl.php but that's not what I'm trying to do. I want it rendered within the content fields.
Is there a module that will create a virtual field that mimics the post date or something like that?
Or is there a module that provides a date time which will automatically set itself to "now" when a new node is created?
