question about changing date on posts

[shibby2]

Hi, I have a quick question...I wanted to add a couple posts from another one of my forums to another forum (I was just going to copy&paste them into new posts), but I want to display the actual date they were posted (a couple years ago)....so, is there any way I can manually change the time and date of a couple posts?

Thanks!

Yes, phpmyadmin, be careful and backup before touching it.

Question...which table would I adjust the date in? I clicked on the 'post' table, but under dateline it's just a number like "1235026915".

Any ideas? :(

That's called UNIX time.
Just convert human time to unix time and replace I suppose.
