      Summary

      When using the office connector and editing/updating a document, the page 'modified date' does not update after the change. This is a request to update the 'modified date' of the Confluence Page when an office document is edited.

      Steps to Reproduce

      • Log into Confluence with Firefox or Internet Explorer
      • Create a new page and 'edit' it.
      • Create a test Office (excel was what I used) document with test data and copy the document to the new page while in 'edit' mode.
      • Save the page
      • (You will need to wait a few minutes so the 'last modified date' is a few minutes previous)
      • Click 'Edit Document'
      • Make a change to the test office document
      • Save the document

      Expected Result

      The page 'date modified' will be updated when the office document is saved

      Actual Result

      The page 'date modified' is unchanged after saving the office document.

      Environment

      Windows 7
      Firefox and Internet Explorer
      Confluence 5.4.2 (I believe this is all versions)

      Other Notes

      We are aware that the 'date modified' on the attachments page does get updated when a change is made. This request is to update the Confluence page 'date modified' to reflect this information as well.
