    Cubic Theme- Date Confusion
    Date Created: The date of my post is still the original date I made the blog (Feb 27th) and not when I go in and make a blog post. How can I get the date I post my blog to appear above the image?
    Date Updated: Also if it is possible, I want to be able to go back into my posts and update them without changing this initial post date. Is there a way that inside the blog itself there can be a section for the Date Updated, but have the main date of the post remain the same?

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

    Hi @marissaalln!

    The date displayed on your post is the date that it was originally published – even if you edit that post or change it’s title later on. The date won’t change unless you manually change it.

    In the case of the posts on your site now, they look like the starter posts that came with your site – so the all have the date they were created. You can delete them and create new posts, or edit them and manually change the date.

    In your post editor you can see the post status in the same section as the update/publish button. On that button there should be a calendar icon – you can use that to change the date of a post if you’d like.

    Just keep in mind that changing the date of a post also changes that post’s address, so if there are links to that post from other sites or social media, those links will stop working when you change the date. :)
