Medium gives error if you post in different time zone

    I live in Japan, and when I post I get this message:

    “Medium Error: If specified, publishedAt must be in the past. (2014)”

    If I wait until the next day and Update, the Medium plug-in posts it no problem. It would be an improvement if the plug in allowed one to post if you live in an area that might have a different date than where Medium is located.

    This is unexpected, and we’ll work on fixing it, thanks!

    Hello Clay B,

    Thank you for reporting this. If you upgrade to the latest version of the plugin (version 1.2), this has been resolved. Thank you for reporting this.

    Cheers,

    Unfortunately, still experiencing same issue. Using v. 1.2.1. on WP 4.4.2.

    yes still an error. it’s a simple date and time error between your own server and the server of medium which can’t add posts in the future. probably should be sceduled. but even better would be to post it straight away and add the time and date of the original post to the post (last line “first publiced at”)

    Yes, very simple error. That’s why I am so interested in learning how long it will take for the plugin contributors to fix it.

    This has been fixed in plugin version 1.2.2, which was just released. Please upgrade at your earliest convenience.

    Just loaded version 1.3 and getting the Medium Error: If specified, publishedAt must be in the past. (2014). Haven’t seen another more current thread on this account. Is there a FIX?
