Create post with concrete date ignores passed date, posted as NOW.

[Дмитрий Николаев]

Hi,

Seems you have some trouble, since using new API posting with date is ignored: post always posted with NOW() time. I've tried many date formatting variants: 

yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm

yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss GMT

yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss

Always nothing works. Passes as string.

This works for me, here is an example utilizing the Ruby client:

``` ruby

client = Tumblr::Client.new

new_post_id = client.text('yourbloghere.tumblr.com', :body => 'hello', :date => '2012-01-01 00:00:00')['id']

client.posts('apeyes.tumblr.com', :id => new_post_id)['posts'].first['date'] # "2012-01-01 05:00:00 GMT"

```

Hope this helps

JC

corrected blog name typo:

``` ruby

client = Tumblr::Client.new

new_post_id = client.text('yourbloghere.tumblr.com', :body => 'hello', :date => '2012-01-01 00:00:00')['id']

client.posts('yourbloghere.tumblr.com', :id => new_post_id)['posts'].first['date'] # "2012-01-01 05:00:00 GMT"

```

Ok, I tried YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss (pseudo), but new post with body and date has not date I've passed, but current.

I will be very grateful if you could run your code  and test it in real battle. Does it work ?

[Дмитрий Николаев]

Ok, Here is date: 2013-05-08 12:38:00

Do you see something wrong with it ?

Depending on your time zone, that date could be in the future - which will then default to _now_

If you're trying to publish posts in the future, maybe queue is what you want?

Hi, 

Seems you are right! This is depends! And since Timezone was not set up properly in Tumblr account, the date become in future, so it make posts with current time.

Thanks for your time and help, John!
