I managed to lose all my old blog site (I was messing with domains on my website server, nothing to do with Pitch theme!).
I want to put the posts back but with the dates they were created, not use the default. Is there a way of doing this? (an easy way, for numpties without any PHP experience).

    Hi Lyn

    Sorry to hear you had this issue. In the future consider Duplicator for your backups and moves: https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/.

    How are you currently doing the restore? From a database backup or via a XML backup (Tools > Export).

    It was my own fault for not making a backup. I’m actually having to restore from my own word documents – my old site was on WordPress, not my own web domain, so I’ve no idea where it went to!

    Will definitely check out Duplicator as I now have several blogs on the go and don’t want to lose them.

    Is there any way of making the date a manual input for this blog? I want to put the (approximate) dates the blog posts related to…..

    Thanks so much

    You can change the published date of each post in the top right corner. Is that your question?
