Allow users to edit time/date stamp

  • I run a group blog. While I’m able to edit the time/date stamp of posts, the other bloggers aren’t able to. They all have level 1 access. Is there a way to allow them to edit the time/date stamp without bumping their levels to 5? I don’t want them to have access to all of the option screens which occurs at level 5.

  • I think this should work, I havent tested it yet, so if it does not work, please write back and I will test it. ??
    Under the wp-admin folder, find b2edit.php and search for the line:
    if (($user_level > 4) && (!empty($HTTP_POST_VARS[‘edit_date’]))) {
    and change the ($user_level > 4) to ($user_level > 0)
    Do this for every instance of the above line. This should let users with access levels greater than zero edit the date and time stamp.

    This solution seems a bit out of date since my installation of WP doesn’t have the b2edt file. Is there a new hack for allowing users of any level to edit the time/date stamp of their own posts?
