Timestamps with fixed format for better search and reminder functionality

[Imkerix]

Describe the feature you'd like

We would like to have something like a timestamp that can be inserted into chapters so all dates and time mentions in bookstack are using the same format. This would enable features like a reminder that writes a mail once a future date is reached and enhance the searchability of bookstack since the format is fixed and can be used via api or directly with the search.

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users

Users would have an easier time searching for dates and could use the api to do stuff with content based on a given time in the content.

Users would get reminders to pages they added timestamps to.

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

If one is able and willing to code an own solution, probably yes, but since every user writes timestamps by themself they will end up in a lots of formats and searching them all with regex would be quite problematic and imprecise.

As far a I know there is no reminder functionality at this moment, so this would need to be coded by the enduser as well. I do imagine this to work via the api, but this would require the dateformats to be searchable in a consistent manner.

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?

• [X] I have searched for existing issues and none cover my fundemental request

How long have you been using BookStack?

6 months to 1 year

Additional context

We do use Bookstack primarily for documentation, which might help to explain our idea for a reminder feature similar to what confluence does with its date objects.

And of course: Thanks for creating Bookstack ;)

This would be an interesting feature. In my use case, some pages must be reviewed regularly (e.g. once a year) by its owner to make sure that the content is still valid. It also reduces the probability of old content remaining in some corner for long periods of time.
