   From the WP-o-Matic help:
   ----------------------------------
   How it works
   To avoid incoherent dates due to lousy setup feeds, WP-o-Matic will use the feed date only if these conditions are met:

   First, of course, if the option is enabled in the campaign settings
   ->> The feed item date is not is not too far in the past (specifically, as much time as the campaign frequency)
   The feed item date is not in the future
   ----------------------------------

   The problem is that I am importing a feed with old post dates, so how can I make it keep the original dates? Maybe a simple hack on the code?

   Hi,

   open wp-o-matic.php and search for:

   if($campaign->feeddate && ($item->get_date('U') > (current_time('timestamp', 1) - $campaign->frequency) && $item->get_date('U') < current_time('timestamp', 1)))

   change this line to:

   if($item->get_date('U') < current_time('timestamp', 1))

   Now it takes the original feed date as long as it is not a future date.
