Curiosity got the better of me so I used the current mod to edit an existing Thread to tomorrow and it does still show up, both in the specific forum and in Search > Today's Active.
Forward dating is possibly a rather kinky way to temporarily stick a thread.

Back dating a Thread obviously does show in correct Forum Thread Search chronological placement.

DO WE NEED AN OPTION TO PUT A CUSTOM DATE IN NEWTHREAD/NEWREPLY?

Trust me to change my mind on this one!
If it can be done, please do it.

For posting backdated Threads that I don't want to show in New Posts, I have been posting them into a private forum > edit > backdate with Xenons mod > then move to it's respective forum ...

If > CUSTOM DATE IN NEWTHREAD/NEWREPLY is possible, I could skip the above and post it right in, pre dated.

If this causes too much of a hassle for you, no probs, I have an alternative method.

Thanks
