I have been posting articles with future dates for one of my other blogs using Windows Live Writer. I like doing this, because I set aside a block of time to write several articles at a time and then just set the date for some time in the future. Then I move on. It's a great feature in WordPress. However, Windows Live Writer doesn't play so well when it comes to future dates.
My example is I set a post this morning to be available on November 27th at 12 AM. When I looked at the post, I noticed the date was set to 1969. Ha, that won't work. So I tried it again, thinking maybe I fat figured something. But not so. Even though, in the Properties section of the editor, I set the date to something in the future, it always defaults to something in the distant past. Not good.
I look around today and couldn't find a fix or even mention of it. Oh well. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. The support forums are basically non-existent, so I'm not sure where to turn. I hope some time a developer for the product reads this and can help me out.
Wow, thanks. I'll try that. I've been using the product for several months and the problem has always been the same. But thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it.
ReplyDeleteWell, that seemed to work. So, I'll keep on posting. Thanks. Great tool.
