(Archived) Default Author attribute

[mjs9199 1]

I think in the old versions of EN there was an option in the settings to define the default author for notes. Right now we have to fill that in for each note...

Can we bring that back into version 4?

I second this. It's extremely useful especially in shared notebooks

Me too. Now I miss that info because most people forget to fill it in.

And.... a note atttribute: "Last edited by" would even be nicer. Also auto filled in.

And..... an RSS option or other way to warn you if a new note has been added/changed to the shared Notebooks.

Or ar my wishes driving you guys mad?

Personally, I can't think of any reason that the author field needs to be user-editable. I would prefer it if every note had fields 'created-by' and 'last-edited-by' automatically populated with the usernames of the relevant persons.

Excellent idea!!!
