Hi there,

Those scheduled post are automated based on cronjob. Have you setup your site with cronjob? If yes, can you provide us with your cronjob access credentials so that we can further check this issues?

That's not correct. A cron job is a set time based on variables you set on the server. Scheduled posts are exactly that - scheduled through EasyBlog. There is no way to set a cron job based off of the time settings in EasyBlog.

I don't have any CRON jobs set up, so if this was a matter of scheduled posts being controlled by CRON, then my article should have never posted, because there was nothing to tell it to post.

Hi there,

You can try to manually run cron url below and see if those post published or not.

You will need to setup them so that it will automate them for you. Please give it a try and see how it goes.

It already published, and that's not the site I'm dealing with. It's lawenforcementsocialmediatraining.com. Please forward this ticket to Arlex please. Thank you.

Hey Mike,

My colleague already discuss with me regarding your current issue and I believe my colleague already explained to you in earlier why need to setup cronjob on your server, you might be wondering why must setup cronjob, let me explain further regarding this how it work actually :

1. Once you setup Cronjob on your server, there got an option to allow you to set the Cron time interval which will help your site automate execute this Cronjob command every minute as what you set.

2. When the Cronjob execute that Cron command as what you set on the server, Easyblog system will check existing schedule post which one need to publish it now (current time), if there got any, it will publish it immediately.

3. And this Cronjob process is not only handle for the schedule post, it also handle this following thing on the site :
- auto send pending email notification to your site subscriber
- auto publish schedule post
- auto unpublish post
- auto schedule re-post and etc

If you have multiple schedule post publish on the same time, some of the post will not publish on the same time because now the schedule post publishing only process one post per time.

For example :
1. My current Cron time interval set to 3 minute per time.

2. I have created 3 schedule posts publish at 1pm today.

3. Imagine when the Cronjob execute at 1pm, it will only publish 1 schedule post.
Cronjob second execution at 1.03pm, it will publish second schedule post.
Cronjob third execution at 1.06pm, it will publish 3rd schedule post.

For now, you have to setup cronjob on your server first then you can monitor again for those next schedule post and see whether those schedule post still didn't publish it automatically after 5 - 10 minute.

We can assist you setup cronjob on your server if you can provide us with your CloudAccess login access.

Arlex and Abdul,

Thank you very much for explaining this to me and now I have a better understanding of why it's using CRON.

I have set up the CRON for checking every 5 minutes and will let you know if I have any further issues. Thank you again for solving this.
