 * I’m having trouble with my draft posts relating to my RSS feed.
    I like to publish
   posts about a particular day, on the day that they happened, but I might not 
   write them for a few days or a week or so later. Once I go back and finish writing
   them, the permalink changes to the date that I finish writing them. Even if I’ve
   already changed ‘Published on’ date, and then when I publish the post, the permalink
   on the post for my journal has changed for the right day, however when it goes
   to my RSS feed (i.e. when it comes up on my livejournal friends page) it links
   to the wrong date. So to explain my point a bit better…. the date I write it 
   might be 2008/04/15/ The actual date I want for the post might be 2008/04/05 
   so when I publish it to my journal, the permalink will be 2008/04/05/post-title
   but when it comes through my RSS feed it will be 2008/04/15/post-title and so
   the direct link from the RSS feed link brings up a 404 error, which means my 
   friends don’t read it! Help please? I don’t want to have this problem!!
