Issue

  • When a user logs in, Liferay is changing the user_ .modifiedDate value in the database table. 

 

Environment

  • Liferay 7.4

 

Resolution

  • The behavior where user_ .modifiedDate field is modified upon User Login has been determined to be Intended Behavior.
    • This includes when a user's information is modified (example: changing contact information)
  • Each time a user logs in, the following method updateLastLogin is called (source code can be found here)
    • This is a persistence update which will always update the modifiedDate as a result.
