If you are shure you want all your posts to be protected, its easyer to do that in phpmyadmin.

But in the adminpnel, can't you go to a past date by clicking in the calendar ?

Another 'normal way'.

when you type this as ulr: http://www.yoursite.com/blog/admin/b2edit.php?action=edit&post=54

are you seeing the post ?

* the last is the number of the post

When I go into the admin panel & click on the edit tab- then I click on the archive month I want & then the date on the calender. Here is what the URL looks like:

http://www.hiddenshadows.com/journal/admin/b2browse.php?blog=2&m=20041018

I see that it says browse rather than edit. I can't view older posts via the admin panel in anyway, only the most recent post.

If I can't get this to work, how do I make the blog private in the PHPmyadmin? That will allow registered members to still view it though right?

Thanks for your help! :)

If you click on this URL is it showing that post in edit mode ?

How to do stuff in phpmyadmin (and yes, member of the blog where those posts belong to, can still view those posts.

First : goto phpmyadmin (that is in your database section of plesk or cpanel)

selet and 'sql' window and type this :

UPDATE `evo_posts` SET `post_status` = 'protected' where`post_issue_date` < '1997-12-24 01:00:00'

change the date to the date you want

yes it shows me that post in edit mode.

How do I get to that with other posts???
