When you create a new post in WordPress, the publish date is set to ‘immediately’, this plugin allows you more control over this behaviour and set a date or time of your choosing.

For example, you can choose to have new posts scheduled for:

  • first Tuesday of next month at 5:30pm
  • next Monday at 09:00
  • Friday at 19:30

Any format that PHP’s (strtotime)[http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.php] function can understand can be used.

Settings are on a per user basis, just go to your profile page!
