# Post_date_gmt problem

 * I noticed the following situation: when I duplicate a post, the post_date is 
   the current time, as I set it, but in the database, the post_date_gmt of the 
   duplicated post is identical with the initial post. And this creates some problems
   with other plugins which take the post_date_gmt as a reference point (like mailchimp
   for creating newsletters, for example). Can you adjust this in a future update,
   please?
