Writer: How to edit the published date?

Technogran MVP

If you did create all of your travel posts in Windows Live Writer, here's a step by step of how to change the publish dates of any of your previous posts.
1. Open Windows Live Writer and click on FILE and then OPEN.
2. If its a very old post, say about 200 posts back, then click on the SHOW box and open up to 500 past posts.
3. Scroll down all of your previous posts until you find the post in Question.
4. Highlight that post by clicking on it and then click on OK.
5. The post will then appear inside the editing window with the publish date empty. (as it is a previous post.)
6. Next Click on the Calendar box to the right of the Set publishing date right down on the right hand side.
7 Now work you way back through the Calendar until you reach your chosen date and choose it, your new date will then by applied to that post.
8. Now re-publish that post. NOTE! It will no longer be in the same sequence of posts in your blog!
Simply repeat this for all your other previous blog posts that you wish to change publish date of. NOTE. This ability to change the publish dates will only work with any previous posts that you have made and composed using Windows Live Writer.
