EPiServer Community Api Comment Date
Looks like a missing feature. If you dig into the code when you fire off the Add method it builds up like this:
public AddRequest Adapt(Comment comment)
{
return new AddRequest
{
Parent = comment.Parent.ToString(),
Author = (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(comment.Author.Id) ? "" : comment.Author.Id),
IsVisible = comment.IsVisible,
Body = comment.Body
};
}
So I would make the guess that "Created" is handled on the api server side.

Yea, I figured it was a bug. Thanks for looking into that Spencer.
I may add an imported date to my BlogCommentExtension class to get around this.

Hello, I'm importing comments from a wordpress blog and everything is working as expected except the comment's `Created` property which seems to get overriden to the current time (in our scheduled job). The following lines create the comment, the `epiComment` object has a `Created` DateTime in 2011 but the `addedComment` is returned with the current time:
```
var epiComment = new Epi.Comment(commentId, parent, authorRef, comment.Content, true,
ancestors, comment.Date, hasChildren, hasChildren);
if(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(comment.AuthorEmail))
{
var commentEx = new BlogCommentExtension(comment.AuthorEmail);
var addedComment = _commentService.Add(epiComment, commentEx);
}
else
{
_commentService.Add(epiComment);
}
```
