Hello,
We used LimeSurvey release 1.92 for years without any issues. Recently we updated to the latest stable release (2.52).
What a disappointment to find huge functional régressions:
1-The "invitation sent" date/timestamp displays only the date, not the hour:minutes anymore
2-When saving a general Survey parameter, the invitation text content is replaced by the first content that was saved !

Are those known bugs or didn't we understand some subttle things in this latest release ?
For the moment we go back to using the 1.92 release which at least was functionally working.

What build? Current "stable" release seems to be LimeSurvey 2.54.1 build 161010. We can discuss about what should be labeled stable.
It is always better to mention the build. This helps to check against bugs fixed in certain builds.

The meaning of the word "stable" for users

Hi, hugues,

1-The "invitation sent" date/timestamp displays only the date, not the hour:minutes anymore

You mean - in the participants table?
I think it was only forgotten by the developers. If you edit a participant the date/time is shown.
So it is there and could/should be displayed.

2-When saving a general Survey parameter, the invitation text content is replaced by the first content that was saved !

So, you changed the invitation text, saved it, afterwards changed something in the general settings, saved them?
And the invitation text was replaced?
Well, I tested in your version 160920 and could not reproduce it.
Can you provide more information about this.
What exactly did you change?

Best regards
Joffm

It displays it indeed when you open the détails window, but it shows always "00:00"

Yes, that is what I did and what happened. Very Strange behaviour.

Well, I tested in your version 160920 and could not reproduce it.

I can reproduce the issue with any modification of a parameter in the general parameters for that Survey. It happens instantly after pressing the "Save" button.

Best regards
Joffm

Yes, I can confirm that in the latest build, the time-stamp in the Survey participants view shows 00:00 while in the token table export it shows the actual time. Please file a bug report.
