 * I have been scouring to find a method / plugin to do this in bulk. I’ve converted
   an old html site and would like to backdate everything in one fell swoop, or 
   at least some hefty batches. I found the Admin Management Xtended plugin, but
   you still have to edit each entry individually.
 * Does anyone have a suggestion or solution?
 * Thanks in advance.
