PMF
-
Can I control which post types are published?
-
Yes, you can select one or more post types in the plugin settings. Default is
post. -
Does it support custom intervals?
-
Yes, set the number of minutes between publishes in the settings page. Minimum safe interval is recommended to avoid accidental bulk publishes.
-
Is publishing logged?
-
Yes, if logging is enabled the plugin stores a rolling activity log (option
cdp_log) and updates the last/total counters. -
How does scheduling work?
-
The plugin uses WordPress cron (WP-Cron) to schedule publishes. For low-traffic sites, set up a server cron job (e.g.,
*/5 * * * * wget -q -O - https://your-site.com/wp-cron.php) for reliable timing. -
Can I manually publish a draft?
-
Yes, use the “Publish Now” button on the dashboard to publish a draft immediately.
