Tumblr Post Dates

Earlier today I wrote a couple posts that I wanted to have published on a future date. The procedure was easy. I just wrote the post, selected “publish on…” and then set the publish time to the date I desired. But, I saw a typo in the post, and when I came back to edit it I noticed that the field “Date this post” showed the time when the post was written. I tried to change this field, but it does not accept a time in the future. I was initially concerned that when the post was eventually published it would show up in my blog for the date on which it was written. So, I made a little test and found that when the post is published the “Date this post” field gets updated to the publish time.
