    Hi
    I just switched to the Bouquet Theme. When I did so all the dates on my posts went really wonky. My last 7 posts show tomorrows date. And then the dates drop back to Oct. 10. Very strange. Can someone please help me?
    Thanks.

    The blog I need help with is janstidbits.wordpress.com.

    Hi Jan,
    I know this sounds odd but will you please go here > Settings > General and make sure your date and timezone settings are correct?
    Secondlym will you please let us know whether or not ANY of your posts are "sticky" posts?

    I checked and my date and timezone settings are correct. None of my posts are "sticky". Everything was fine until I switched themes.

    I am auditioning Bouquet also and it looks very odd. Suggestions? Did I do something to make the header ugly (other than load my own picture) and the dates chopped off on the side? WeddingDressBlue

    Confirmed: when I switched by test blog to Bouquet, my November 4 post became Nov 11, all my October posts (various dates) became Oct 10, etc.

    ditto on the date problem on Gallery-A Demo Blog. All the post "dates" are the month (Nov=11, Aug=8, etc.)

    Also, it seems that when I switched to this theme, the post format of this post http://agallerydemo.wordpress.com/2011/08/19/gallery-as-custom-excerpt/ was changed from Gallery to Uncategorized and, odder still, no text shows up even though there is text there.

    Clarification: no text shows up on the front page of the blog. It does show up in the individual post.

    I am having the same problem with my blog after switching to Bouquet--all of the dates are 11-11-11. I hope this is correctable because I really like the theme!

    I am glad that it wasn't just me having the problem. I have been known to mess things up :) I hope it is going to be fixed as well. I love the theme.

    Thanks for all the details, we're aware of the problem—and working on a fix. I'll update this thread once it's fixed.

    Hi everyone: please reload Bouquet-themes sites. The month/day display is fixed now.

    Thanks Lance :) I didn't even have to reload. Just opened my blog and the dates were fixed. Great service!
