@rossagrant — I think it’s a site by site, use case by use case, issue. I don’t think one or the other approach should be forced. Would be nice if the core functions for blog post updates / edits provided a […]

@rossagrant – if you want to keep the bumping of posts on edit, you should be able to hook on to the edit_post or pre_post_update actions, and modify the datetime of the corresponding activity item.

@shawn38 –

If no one comes back with an example, and you need to hire a developer to help write the code, you can try on the Jobs board on this site.
