Hmm, ok, thanks for the prompt reply.

No, what I said still stands, it is broken when posting from the GUI too.

Actually, that does work, but not when called from code.

Never mind. Doh!

My problem is, I insert posts with wp_insert_post (using code NOT the GUI) with a future post status, and wordpress schedules it fine, but when the post goes live, the category count is not updated (see my post above for the ‘function/hook trail’).

Are there any issues with WP2.3x’s incorrect updating of categories?

As mentioned above, I succussfully added posts using wp_insert_post, future ones WERE successfully scheduled for the future, as the future dates come and go the new posts get published BUT the category counts don’t update as this happens.

I got around this by loading the posts into a giant array, and loading them with their intended dates and status first time, instead of putting them as drafts into the posts table first.

However, the issue still stand about converting drafts to future using the API…
