Future posting with WordPress

By webbythoughts | Dec 12, 2006

My wife made me figure out something that will hopefully become one of my own good habits.

I asked her to write a series of posts on a topic on another one of my blogs. She saved them all as drafts.

I finally took the time to learn how to publish a post so that it does not show up until some time in the future.

For anybody that does not know, you go into the Post Timestamp group over on the right side of the screen when you are writing the post. Simply type the date and time you want the post to show up. Make sure you select the Edit timestamp check box and them publish like normal. The post will not show up until the date and time you selected.

I went ahead and wrote 7 posts for one of my blogs and set them each to publish at 8am daily for the next week. I am also trying to build up a similar queue of posts for each blog that I write. It seems like it would be easier to get in a grove and do a whole bunch of writing at once rather than trying to think up something everyday to write.

We’ll see.
