@alexwaddell @macgenie There's not a web UI for changing dates yet, but apps like MarsEdit on the Mac can do it. If you're interested in trying that, check out this help page.
@manton I tried mars edit earlier today and couldn’t change the date or time, no place to do it - perhaps not configured correctly. Any tips @danielpunkass ?
@alexwaddell @danielpunkass If you open an existing post, there should be a menu option: Post → "Edit Date…"
@manton @alexwaddell Yes, that should do the trick. The date UI is not visible in the main post editor window. Bear in mind after changing the date you need to "Send to Blog" again to update the published post.
@alexwaddell @manton I'm a Windows PC user (with iPhone).
Is there anything else that will let me back-date posts? I have a couple of old bits to upload.
@manton I've been wanting to ask this for some time now, are you planning an option to customize the URL format? Or will that work if I customize my theme config?
Actually my old simple URLs got complicated when I migrated to m.b.
@amit Yes, I am planning it. The import feature automatically redirects old blog URLs and that needs to be expanded and editable.
