Can't edit date of posts suddenly

  • What happened to WordPress’s “edit date”?

    All of a sudden, I can’t change the date to a past date! I need that option to organize my posts.

  • can you edit the date at all?

    do you still have the corresponding fields under the ‘publish’ box when you edit posts?

    does the problem continue if you temporarily deactivate all plugins and switch to the default theme Twenty Sixteen?

    Nope. The date option is still there, but when I select Feb 31 instead of March 31, I get the date highlighted in red, and this message: Whoops, the provided date is invalid.

    It’s across several sites at least. I’m not at the point where I want to disable all my plugins to test that aspect, as this can cause issues with WordPress as well.

    well – yes – there is no FEB 31 – if at all FEB goes to 29 in leap years …
