It is possible to specify the time which a story will be posted. What I am wondering is if it is possible to look at the mysql database and see when it actually was posted.

Is this possible?

Not sure what you're really asking for, but here goes ...

Geeklog can post stories in the future. Just set the time in the story editor and the story will appear when that date/time comes.

Sure. Where do you think Geeklog gets that information from?

Table gl_stories, field 'date'.

I know that it is getting the date to display from that "date" field. My question is if that "date" value is the user specified story date/time or the actual date/time the story was submitted.

It's the time the story was submitted, originally. But the (Story) Admin can change it at will form the story editor.

Well it is not the time it was submitted, it is the time they clicked "get published" or the time they specified if they have access rights to do so.

I was able to find the exact time it was written to the mysql database by reviewing the mysql logs. Thanks for your help.
