  How can I add articles I’ve written in past and have them listed by the date of their publication, not the date I’m posting them?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Use the procedure outlined here for scheduling a post in the future but make the date in the past.

  Thank you! That worked for the pieces published earlier this year. I also wanted to add pieces published in 2011, but changing (editing) the publication date still shows up as 2012 when I try to publish it, even though on my draft/post page, it shows up as 2011. Know any way to work around this problem? Thank you again.

  OK, it fixed itself when I actually published it. Thank you so very much for the help!
