19907,Updating an unpublished draft post in quick-edit mode sets the post's publish date,uxtremist,,"'''Problem:'''

 • If you update an unpublished draft post in quick-edit mode, the post's ''publish date'' is saved. [[BR]]
 • Then, later on, when you actually publish the post, its publish date is incorrect.

'''Suggested fix:''' 

 • If the post is a draft, do not automatically set the post's publish date in quick-edit mode.

'''Steps to reproduce:''' 

(1) Go to WP-Admin -> Posts.

(2) Create and save a new post. Make sure you click ""Save Draft"" — not ""Publish"".

(3) Note that the post is marked as ""Publish immediately""; that is, it has no publish date.

(4) Go back to WP-Admin -> Posts.

(5) Hover your pointer over the post you just created. Click ""Quick Edit"". 
 — Note that in the panel that appears, the ""Date"" field is automatically set to [the current date and time].

(6) Click ""Update"" in quick-edit mode.

(7) Hover your pointer over the post you just updated. Click ""Edit"". 
 — Note that in the Edit Post page that appears, the post is now marked as ""Publish on: [the date and time from step (5)]""
