Schedule updates not getting published

    Hello,

    Great idea for a plugin. Unfortunately, my scheduled updates are not getting published.

    My other CRON operations are being carried out properly.

    My time zone setting is correct.

    If I schedule an update for 10 minutes in the future and then check on it — it is still there. It does not get published.

    I’m using WordPress version 4.6.1, and TAO version 1.08.

    Perhaps a dumb question, but: The next CRON operation AFTER the scheduled release date is the what should trigger the update, correct?

    Thanks for the help.

  • I am also seeing this behavior. “Publish Now” still works and replaces the parent page with the appropriate content, but the actual scheduled updates do not work.

    Hi,

    I got this issue resolved on my site.

    What worked for me was to adjust my CRON settings. The next time CRON fires, AFTER the time of the scheduled update, is when the update will be published. So I had to change my CRON settings to fire at a different time of day in order for the updates to work. My CRON only goes once/day. If yours goes many times a day, then you may have a different issue.

    Hope that helps.

    Yeah it turned out that Cron job was getting blocked by a bad curl request (this was a staging environment multisite), WP Crontrol was extremely useful for debugging.

    The problem was tied to a problem with executing wp-cron.php, not this plugin specifically.
