You can use a custom capture template and have timestamps of various sorts inserted.

For example, I have one datetree I use that inserts a date/time stamp using %T (%t gives only date, not time)

See the documentation for capture (hit C-c C C  to get into the customize interface then scroll down)

Hope this helps!

Subject: [O] Why don't datetrees use timestamps?

 

I'm using orgmode 8.2.10. When I use capture, the year/month/day headers inserted aren't timestamps; why not? Is there a way to make them timestamps? (I can't find anything about this in the manual.)
