Editing post without re-publishing it

Hi,
I wonder if there is a way to edit an older post without changing its "last updated" date and - more important to me - without re-publishing it in the rss feed?

Cheers,
Michael

You can only do that by editing the serendipity_entries database table.

Actually that's what "last updated" means. ;) The RSS feed btw only includes updated items within the last 2 weeks or so. That is a timerange which can be configured within the serendipity_config.inc.php file...

Regards,
Garvin

"last updated" isn't the problem :)

Usually this would come in handy if I've made a typo and want to correct it without forcing my readers to look on that article again ...

But usually this is a worthful information, that you've fixed a typo.

"Last updated" means "has been changed". In your case, that applies. :-)
