Add Comment Field with Prefilled Date

[LibbyF79]

Hullo, I am very new to Caspio so please do bear that in mind when responding! I am trying to add a comments field to my records that when filled in will store the information with a data stamp for each entry. So for example Joe enters a comment in record A on Monday and then Frank enters a comment in the same record on Tuesday, I'd like that data to be present with a date stamp in the record that everyone who enters the record will be able to see. Would I be able to get some help with this please? Thanks!

Hello there. This is a very common question asked. This URLshould help you with your time stamp https://howto.caspio.com/tech-tips-and-articles/common-customizations/stamp-the-time-url-or-ip-address-to-new-and-updated-records/

Hi @LibbyF79,

You could also have a field for a certain record and set that field as Calculated Value. This allows you to generate calculations and another calling of fields which you can use for concatenation. 
(ex. [@comment]+' '+'[@cbTimestamp*]')

I hope this helps!
