Random interval

  • Hi Jeff!

    I’ve not already tried because I’ve 60 drafts with me and I have 2 questions:

    1. Does the Random schedule has a good interval?

    example: I have 5 drafts to be published from 11am to 6pm but I don’t want to see that 4 drafts are published between 11am to 12am and the last one at 5pm

    2. Is it possible to schedule 5 drafts during the daytime and not interval? If I set a 3 hours interval will publish also during night (with few ppl reading it)

    Sorry if my questions seems weird but I’ve not installed DS after things are clear to me

    THANK YOU!

    Hi Zoltar:

    1 – Random is random. If there were a “good interval”, it wouldn’t be random.

    2 – Currently no. The plugin doesn’t know day from night. If you schedule 5 posts for a calendar day, they get scheduled during that 24 hour period based on the interval.

    Remember too that even if people aren’t actively reading at night, they will be able to discover the content when they return, and Google will be able to index it in the meantime.

    In either case, after the schedule is set, you can tweak it by editing the posts that don’t occur when you like them. The plugin was designed as a quick way to schedule a ton of posts, mainly from drip feeds, RSS and other bulk content creation.

    With a small number of posts, it might be easier to handle them manually.
