When publishing a story in Composer for the first time, the dialog box for selecting the publication date and viewing the date details is unfolded. However, this can lead to journalists accidentally changing the date when publishing news stories quickly.
Could it appear "folded" when publishing the story for the first time?
We don't have immediate plans to look into this at the moment, but it is something we could consider. I'll bring this back to the team to see how we might be able to adjust this given others have requested for this to be open by default.
