Change recorded variables created_at property

Question

Is there a way to change a database records "created_at" variable after it created?

Answer 1

Sure, since rails 2.3 you can change it like any other column: get the object from the database, set the value for the column, save it.

my_model = MyModel.find(42)
my_model.created_at = Date.today
my_model.save
