    Here’s some more info, as I’m still having this problem:

    The timestamp on my posts is in this format:
    8/31/2004 07:20:11 PM

    That seems to be mm/dd/yyyy h:m:s AM/PM, just as the script called for. Why did it grab this date wrong?

    The output for this and about half of my entries is this date:

    1969-12-31
    3:59:59 pm

    Please help.-Alex Pelan

    My permalinks are set up for http://alexpelan.com/blog/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/

    Let’s look at that first entry on the page. The permalink is:
    http://alexpelan.com/blog/2011/09/sunday(etc.)

    It’s actually stored at
    http://alexpelan.com/blog/2004/12/sunday(etc.)

    This is where the permalink would point if the date was right, so I feel almost as if the permalink problems are caused by these date problems.

    Another thing I’ve just thought of…for the %postname% it seems that wordpress uses a different style of naming entries (without hyphens)…could this be causing a permalink problem? Should I edit the timestamps manually, hoping the permalinks will fix themselves, or change the permalinks to postid? It seems like there is an easy fix to this, but if I have to, I’ll manually change the details for 150 or so posts (I REALLY don’t want to do this, for obvious reasons.) Help would be appreciated.-Alex Pelan
