How can I change the posted date and time of my items?

Scenario:

  • "I want to change the time Nucleus says my item was posted."
  • "I've recently converted my HTML site into Nucleus and I want to keep the posting date of everything the same as before."

Solution:
Use Nucleus' "posting to the past" feature to alter the posted time for items.
