> Better GUIDs
> ------------

> Key: ROL-595
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-595
> Project: Roller
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: David Johnson
> Assignee: Roller Unassigned
>
> From my comment on bug ROL-580:
> "I think the user should be able of change the publication date of a post, so
> perhaps we should change the way we generate GUIDS."
> We don't want to use the database IDs in the GUID. Fortunately, each entry is
> uniquely identified within a blog (or "website" in Roller terms) what we call
> an anchor (because we use it for the HTML anchor). So we should use the
> anchor as our GUID and we'd have something like this:
> urn:hostname:username:post_id
> Or for when we add group blogs:
> urn:hostname:blogname:post_id
> Or should we include the original creation date of the post (and not allow
> the user to change that)?
> If we do this, in the RSS feeds we'll have to use <guid isPermalink="false">
> and we put the actual permalink in the <link> element.
