Manipulate post dates programmatically

[sloth456]

Hi,

I've been using createPost() to make posts on my forum, however now I wish to manipulate the post dates attached to those posts.  createPost() does not seem to have a way to do this, is there any other function I can use?

Or can I simply run SQL UPDATE queries on the posterTime column in the smf_messages table without causing errors or problems in the long run?

SQL UPDATE would work fine.  Not sure of a built-in function to do it for ya.

Thanks for your help, I shall give it a go.
