From: James Green Date: 15:40 on 04 Apr 2006 Subject: Wordpress OK, so it's blogging software, which makes it automatically hateful, but someone wanted me to set up a site for them with it, so I figured I'd have a go. Refusing absolutely to show posts in the future (there's not even a config option to override this) is, I guess, not completely insane -- it suits what most of their users will probably want, although it'd be nice to give those of us who want something else another option. So I can live with that, especially since I found a plugin that lets me handle future posts as "events" to be tracked in a calendar, which is what I really wanted all along. So far, so hoopy. But, in possibly the worst bit of UI design ever, it seems that if I want to future-date a post, as well as editing the timestamp, I need to tick a little tickybox on each post, "Edit timestamp." Did it not occur to anyone that, given I already EDITED THE FRICKIN' TIMESTAMP, my intention to edit the timestamp was, perhaps, implicit? I'm not exactly going to do it by accident, now, am I? Wankers. -- James
