How To: Publish a Post at a Future Date and Time

Posted in: Tutorials by Brad Williams on August 22, 2009

WordPress has the ability to automatically publish any post at a future data and time. First click the “Edit” link next to the Publish setting in the Publish meta box:
Publish Post Automatically on Date/Time
Next set the month, day, year, and time that you want your post to publish and click “OK”:
Set Post to Publish on Schedule Screenshot
WordPress will automatically publish your post at this exact date and time.

This makes it extremely easy to write posts ahead of your publishing schedule and have them published automatically. This is a great technique if you are going on vacation but don’t want a big gap in posts published on your website or blog.
