DateSweep

Refresh published & modified dates across posts, pages, CPTs and comments in one batched, reversible pass. Preview before, undo after — free plugin.

Give your site a fresh set of dates — in one clean sweep.

Bulk-update published & modified dates across posts, pages, custom post types and comments. Preview before, undo after.

You cloned a great template. Every date still says 2019.

Sites built from an older template — or freshly imported — carry stale timestamps on every post and page. Visitors notice. Search engines notice. Fixing them by hand across hundreds of items is a day you don't have.

The free core does the heavy lifting — batched, filterable, and fully reversible. Pro adds automation and scale.

Sweep every public post type at once, or target posts, pages, a CPT, or comments individually — each on its own tab.

See current → proposed dates in a table before a single row is written. No surprises, ever.

Every run is snapshotted first. Restore the exact previous dates instantly if you change your mind.

Processed in background batches with a live progress bar — tens of thousands of posts, no PHP timeout.

Target by category, tag or any taxonomy with AND/OR logic, choose specific pages, or include drafts & private.

Nonces, capability checks, prepared queries, no external calls. Changes dates only — never your content.

Daily, weekly or monthly sweeps on autopilot — with a Save & Run Now button. Every scheduled run is undoable too.
