Hello, so I imported some Joomla Articles to EasyBlog and I noticed that a lot of them, but not all, have Publish Date 11 Jan 2030 00:00.

Is there a way to bulk change these dates back to a normal date like the current day?

Edit: I just noticed that articles have a normal date by default. If I open them they get the 2030 date automatically, I don't even have to save the article for the change to happen.
That was strange, is it possible to update your site backend and FTP access at https://stackideas.com/dashboard/site so we can better have a check?

Hello FTP is not available, But I updated the site details and created an account for you.

Also, tried to manually change the dates from the database, but doesn't work. I attach the updated database.

It should be under `publish_up` column, I already help you updated your published date to 2019-01-01.

Can you give it a check and see whether show it correctly now?

If you can setup FTP user account for us, so we can troubleshoot why that migrator process update for this 2030 date.

Hi again. I changed manually from the back-end one by one the articles to another date. I used random dates i.e. Sep 2019, Aug 19 and I also put times. Whenever I get back to the article (of course I saved) the article publish date is going to 2030.

In addition I exported the table from the database and I - again - changed the dates. When I uploaded everything is fine, then whenever I access the post from the back-end the date shows changed. I also changed browser to avoid any weird cache issues etc. I suspect that this have something to do with the use of the gallery but I may be wrong as well. I noticed that when I remove the gallery from some posts - not all of them - the issue dissapears. Then again I'm not sure. Please, give me a solution on that, I don't know what else I can do. FTP is not available, we do have "Extplorer" as a component that does the same. I also downloaded again the latest version and reinstalled (downgrade didn't work for me).

Hey John,

I am sorry for the delayed of this reply,

We will not encourage troubleshoot the issue through those file extension especially like "Extplorer" is because if we make some mistake from the PHP code on your site then it might caused the site down so you unable to revert back the code through "Extplorer" this file extension.

However, I think I accidentally updated all the blog post "publish_up" date to 2019-09-01 13:00:00, perhaps you can share with me which blog post still showing 2030 date time? So I can check it now?

Because this table #__easyblog_revisions table also will involved for this as well.
