      For some reason, since I upgraded to Wordpress 3.1 I am not able to edit the time published. Anyone else having this happen?

      I found it to be a little bit different; Log into your account and click posts click on the name of your post and over on the right, you'll see 'published on' and the date. click the edit link and change it there. Click update and your done!
