Blog Publish Date (past not allowed anymore)

[Cowboy Denny]

Did something change in the last revision or so to prevent us from using dates in the past for blog entries.  I've done it when moving some articles from my other site to current site so the content reflects when I actually made the post BUT now when I try and enter a date in the past (even if its minutes) IPS doesn't allow me anymore.  Curious why this feature was taken away from us.

This was actually a bug. The intention of being able to set a publish date was to set future publications. However as a byproduct it was allowing dates to be set in the past. Unfortunately however, this caused other issues in the software so was prevented

Okay, bummer and another right cross from Invision.  So have to do it manually in the Database then. Feels as though software keeps taking steps backwards.
