How to display old articles? - joomla

I wanted to set created date of the articles, so I set the date of the articles to 2012-2-1 but after the setting the date of the articles it's not displaying in the front-end anymore now.
After doing a deep dive into this I saw the article in the back-end it isn't being published. It's saying published, but has expired.
So, can I not publish the old-dated articles?
Please, help me on this topic. Thank you.

Published but has expired means that you have set a Finish Publishing date and that date is in the past. It sounds like you changed that date instead of the create date.

for created date You should change Created Date field you may accidentally changed Start Publishing or Finish Publishing

magento google calendar integration

I am new to magento, and working on already installed magento system. The thing is, we have integrated google calendar with our magento booking system. But, nowdays, the bookings are not getting pushed into the calendar.I also checked the configuration settings, and the username password for Google calendar are correct. So, when I go to any product, then the dropdownlist for google calendar doesnt pop up anything. Please I need some help in bringing this calendar back.
I think you could open Firebug and try to click in the calender, then select the element which stands in your way. It could be something wrong with the HTML or CSS.
Besides that, keep in mind don't overwrite the original file as it will be overwritten again on next update. Create a new file and include this instead via layout xml.
Hopes that can help.

How to find which admin user posted the product?

Currently Im working on a magento project and it have a plugin developed by another team. This project have merchant logins also. But the issue I am facing now is. When I add a product from merchant panel, it is not getting displayed in his product list. It is shown in admin product list. I want to track down what userid is entering corresponding to that record inserting from merchant login.
In which table I have look? After searching a lot I believe they are not storing any userid corresponding to each product. But I am not sure about that. How can I confirm that?
Please help me
Thanks in advance
There is no such functionality in magento admin, as far as I know. But you can write your own module to controller_action_predispatch or to core_abstract_model_save_after(or something like this) events. And you will be able to see who did what.
UPDATE 1
If I am right, meaning this is not implemented, then you should your own custom logging module.
Module should use Observer functionality. If you want particullarly catch the product save, then you should catch the events of product saving.
here.
To compare product data you can see an example here.
Well to get current user you can read this example.
Moreover in case it is not enough, you may watch here, something might be interestring for you.

Joomla: Publish and Unpublish pages automatically?

Is there anyway to publish and unpublish pages automatically in certain time in Joomla or any other CMS? If so how?
Cheers
Yes.
In Joomla, in the article itself, there is a section about publishing, where you can set INITIAL DATE of PUBLISHING and END DATE. By default, the INITIAL date is the moment you created and published by the first time the article... and the END DATE is set to "NEVER".
You need to edit your article to access this publishing section.

Editing email templates

this is probably really easy, but here goes:
My changes to the magento email templates don't show in the emails.
What am I doing wrong? Do I need to reinstall magento to get the updates? Am I simply editing the wrong files?
Thanks...
UPDATE: So now:
I have a fresh magento install
I haven't touched the Transactional Emails admin
I don't have locale set to 'en_US' (but since 1.4 that shouldn't be a problem right? Anyway, I tried setting the locale but it didn't help)
I ERASED the entire app/locale/en_US/template/email/ catalog
With this setup I completed an order and I still get the default email.
The only thing I can think of is I'm coming at this from the wrong direction, but I can't for the life of me figure it out.
Is it possible that your email templates are already saved into the database, and that your changes of the files are therefore not editing the correct version of the templates? Take a look at System -> Transactional Emails to see any templates that have been "promoted" to the database.
Hope that helps!
Thanks,
Joe
Make sure you have the proper locale selected within the admin if you are using the Transactional Emails to create new templates. Also you can also edit the files directly via
/app/locale/[language]-[country]/template/email/
