 * I am having issues using wp_insert_post when posting far into the future. If 
   I make a post for the next couple of days it works fine however if I make it 
   to be posted in a month or two it will be posted straight away and isn’t being
   displayed in the admin area under ‘Posts’
 * The code I am using is:
    ` //This is what the value of $imageDate looks like.
   $imageDate = '2012-10-30'; if($imageDate != false) { $imagePost = array( 'post_title'
   => $imageTitle, 'post_content' => 'Content added later.', 'post_status' => 'future','
   post_date' => $imageDate . " 00:00:00", 'post_author' => 1, 'tags_input' => "'".
   $imageTags."'", 'post_category' => array(1) ); } else { $imagePost = array( '
   post_title' => $imageTitle, 'post_content' => 'Content added later.', 'post_status'
   => 'publish', 'post_author' => 1, 'tags_input' => "'".$imageTags."'", 'post_category'
   => array(1) ); }
 * $postID = wp_insert_post($imagePost);
