Wordpress - setting post_date

I am trying to install post_date

Wordpress blog posts via XMLRPC.

I am sending data as a string:

$pubdate = '2010-04-08 13:46:43';

'post_date'=>$pubdate,

Appears 'post_date'

correctly?

I also found this post related to the issue: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/330597

Can anyone suggest how I posted the date as: dateTime.iso8601

Have you tried this?

$pubdate = date('c',strtotime('2010-04-08 13:46:43'));

To post a date as an item <dateTime.iso8601>

(assuming you are using the built-in XML-RPC client in WordPress, you want to specify the date as an object IXR_Date

.

// Convert the time to an integer value for parsing.
$pubdate = strtotime( '2010-04-08 13:46:43' ); 

// Convert the date to the right kind of object.
$pubdate = new IXR_Date( $pubdate );


Now, when you pass an array of arguments to a request, the pass 'pub_date' => $pubdate

will result in a valid XML element being generated.

See this other answer on a similar question for more information if you want a complete working example.
