Perfect. Thanks for keeping cranking on this.

Daniel,

Great work! Ok so it is almost perfect; here is one issue left with bulk editing (I think as I have been testing on two separate sites with unchanged core code and consistently seeing the same result); here is the scenario:

1. Two test articles created at the same time one using only WP statuses (Draft —> Pending Review —> Save) and other WP and Edit Flow custom ones (Draft or Pending Review —> Pending Publication or any other Edit Flow custom ones —> Save)

2. Waited for time to pass say 1hr; go to All Posts, select those two respective articles, choose Edit under Bulk Actions drop-down, click Apply to bring up the bulk editing window, change status to Publish, and click Update.

3. Two articles were updated:
a. One using only WP statuses showed “1min ago Published” under Date column under All Posts

b. One using both WP and Edit Flow showed “1hour ago Published” under Date column under All Posts

Beside the issue above, publishing individual article via the post page is perfectly fine now displaying the correct timestamp and can be filtered by published date i.e. by month flawlessly.

BTW I am running WP Multi-site.

Awesome. Thanks.

Thanks for keeping up the effort; let me know if you need anything else from me.

Hi Daniel,

You can do this test to see the issue right away (I just did and confirmed):

In essence you create two posts at the same time approximately:

1. Create a post named “Test – WP Statuses – Put the current time here”; save as Draft and change to Pending Review and then save again (you can keep switching between the two many times as you wish but don’t change it to any of the Edit Flow’s ones).

2. Create another post named “Test – Edit Flow – Put the current time here”; save as Draft or Pending Review and then change it to any of the Edit Flow’s custom statuses such as Pending Publication in my case and save.

Now wait for 5 min then publish both of them approximately at the same time back to back. Immediately after that, click on All Posts, filter by Published status and look under Date. Based on my own testing, you would probably something like this see under Date:

1. For “Test – WP Statuses – Put the current time here”: 1 min ago Published (because you just published it)

2. For “Test – Edit Flow – Put the current time here”: 6 min ago Published (because I assume the timestamp somehow is still affixed at the time when you change from a WP status to a Edit Flow’s)

The lapse in time indicates that #2 is not showing the right published time/date.

I have captured screenshots of All Posts filtered by Published status and also the edit page versions of each post showing exactly what I describe above here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rougesmoke/
