Moving and Categorizing Ideas is Updating the Idea Date

Can you please provide the exact steps you took and what complete version you are on?

11.1.0.9731 is the complete version number

Was this widget customized?  I have tried this several times on a later version and am not seeing this behavior, its possible this was corrected at some point, but all my tests the date was retained.

Claudine or WillMcKnight - Could you answer this?  

The list widget is showing the LastUpdateDate and not the CreatedDate. It should be showing the created date (since you can sort on that date). To adjust this behavior you can change ~line 264 in the Idea - Idea widget to use $idea.CreatedDate instead of $idea.LastUpdatedDate:

<span class="attribute-value">$core_v2_language.FormatDateAndTime($idea.CreatedDate)</span>

A product change has been logged to match the behavior of showing the CreatedDate.

Its also possible to allow sorting on last updated, which I can explain to do if you would like. If that is done its ideal to also show the modified date somewhere to users so it clear why the results are in the order they are.

Yes , we also faced the same issue and changed the code 

Claudine or WillMcKnight - Could one of you make this change?  Thanks!
