Hi
I have subpage where all new content lands, from time to time I move some content from this subpage to frontpage. I would like to sort frontpage content by the date content was promoted to frontpage. I am using views, unfortunatelly there is no such field. Do you have any idea how can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance for help

Promoting a node to the front page will affect when a node was last changed, or 'updated'.

For the stretch of time you keep your content on the front page, if you don't edit it again, the last 'node: updated' date will represent when the node was promoted to the front page.

You could then stack your Views filters, first to filter by 'promoted to front page' and then by 'node: updated'. That will give you the desired result (if you don't touch the nodes again while they're there).

I assume you're already using a custom View for this front page functionality; if not, you'll have to make one and set it as your default front page in order to get multiple filters.
