Reliable auto-publishing needs a working cron
Section titled “Reliable auto-publishing needs a working cron”Scheduled updates are published by a WordPress cron task that runs every minute. WordPress cron (WP-Cron) is triggered by site traffic, so on a low-traffic site posts can publish a few minutes late. For on-time publishing on quiet sites, set up a real server cron job. See Cron and Publishing for the exact setup.
Supported platforms and themes
Section titled “Supported platforms and themes”The scheduling control adapts automatically to the platform and theme in use:
- BuddyPress (Nouveau and Legacy templates)
- BuddyBoss Platform and the BuddyBoss Theme
- Youzify
- Reign and BuddyX / BuddyX Pro themes
rtMedia is also detected so that scheduled posts stay hidden from feeds when rtMedia’s privacy features are enabled. See Integrations for details.
