Recently published changes still shown as available for Staging in subsequent publication process

Issue

1. Have a staged site
2. Create a new web content article
3. Create a new publication process and publish all the 'Content' changes by choosing the 'Last 12 hours' option
4. After successful publication, create another publication process
5. Go to the 'Content' section and choose the 'Last 12 hours' option and click on refresh count.

• Expected Result: No web content changes should be shown as available for selection unless actual changes were made in the web content after the most recent successful publication.
  Actual Result: The same number of web content changes are still shown as available for selection for publication to the live site.

 

Environment

• Liferay 7.3+
• Quarterly Releases

 

Resolution

• The current behavior is intended.
• The 'From Last Publish Date' option is handled separately from the other date range options. It is only the ‘From Last Publish Date' option which considers if the changes were already published.
• The other options (Date Range, Last x hours) will publish all entries belonging to that date range and will not filter out entries that haven’t been created, modified, or deleted since the last publication.
