WordPress Tip - Schedule your posts

I just discovered a great thing about WordPress - you can schedule the publishing of your posts in the future. This means that I can start posting at 7:00 AM (well before I wake up), so that the east-coasters have something new in their RSS reader first thing in the AM. It also means that I can set up a bunch of posts for my Banff, Glacier Park, Montana roadtrip next week, and hopefully not have a total traffic die off.

The basics: on your “write” page, in the right hand column, check off the “edit timestamp” box and enter the date and time you want your post to “go live.” Hit publish, and that’s it! Better, detailed instructions are here.

    Hey Rod

    That’s pretty useful - I’ve just tried it out.

    Just one more great feature, which is why Wordpress impresses me more evey day.

    Imagine scheduling your post to appear on the 1st “bong” of Big Ben!

    Yeah, cheers to that! Wordpress is fantastic. I evangelize it more and more every day to my designer friends as a CMS platform for clients.
