Today, I was trying to illustrate a potential use case for Discourse. We have some “weekly update” communications from various teams that are currently sent via email. I wanted to show how this would look if we did this in Discourse instead, so I was going through my inbox and copying/pasting messages into an example topic in Discourse. I wanted to change the dates to match the original email dates. This way the “gaps” and the “timeline” in the progress bar would look more “real”.
Would be cool if we could do this. (Might come up again if there’s enough interest in actually migrating old content into Discourse, though perhaps that will just be done by some other means).
