How to show “modified” date in Page Layout?

Question

I have made a custom page layout in which I have added the following fields (these are my custom fields)

• title
• summary
• detail

So basically when a user creates a new page based on this page layout he has to enter the above fields.

I want to show "created" date on that page? I mean when user creates a page, it should automatically get "created" date and show on page.

Or if it cannot be done automatically, is there any other way to do that?

Answer 1

You can use

<SharePointWebControls:FieldValue id="CreatedOn" FieldName="Created" runat="server" />

But most often people use the publishing start date like this:

<PublishingWebControls:PublishingScheduleFieldControl FieldName="PublishingStartDate" InputFieldLabel="Scheduling Start Date" runat="server" />
