Hello, just curious about form submissions...

Question:

How to distinguish between initial creation (first save) and edit mode? As far as I know, there is no specific "task" in submission URL. i.e. new, create, edit

Maybe compare initial create date and current date?

Thanks for listening.

Where you want to know it? In the form template?

$isnew = empty($this->item->id);

If there is no ID then it is new article.
