When I schedule a blog to be published for a future date, the author is receiving an email indicating their blog has been published. But when they click on the link, it goes to a 404 error because it's not actually visible on the site.

This is a problem for only scheduled blogs. Can the system hold of sending an email to the author until the blog has been actually published ( not scheduled for publishing)?
Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a public holiday for us here.

Based on what i tested in my locally, it seems like when the user submit a schedule post, the system will only notify the post owner his post already under scheduled, you can check my attached screenshot below.

But the system will not send out the email notification to your site subscriber yet is because this post haven't publish on the site.

Can i have the permission to submit a few test blog post on your site?

Hey James,

I am sorry for that i accidentally send out 1 test post email notification to your site subscriber during testing.

Yes, i did realised this issue during testing, but something is strange, it seems like i was unable to replicate this issue in my locally, if that is valid blog post, it should redirect user to login page instead of return 404 error.

Can you update your site FTP access so we can better have a check?
