Thanks for all the help and yes it appears to be the WordPress Pseudo-Cron. Here’s what I got back from GoDaddy: “The Schedule posts are published through the WordPress Cron, and the WordPress Cron relies on traffic/visitors on the website to keep track of time and execute scheduled tasks. So if your website does not have any visitor at the scheduled time of the post the Cron will not run and in turn, the post will not be published. However, the missed Cron will automatically run when a user visits your website.” Seems like an odd way of tracking time to me, but I get it. Thanks again! Marking this resolved.

Thanks, @jnashhawkins! ConvertKit is an email provider (sorry for the red herring; I was just whining about the fact that I’d scheduled emails to go out saying “Here’s my new post” which then led to a dead link because of the unpublished post). I like the idea of the auto test post; I’ll probably give that a try. And yes, some people love the industrious folks! Thanks again.

Thank you! And sorry to confuse the issue by mentioning ConvertKit; they’re just an email service provider and I schedule the emails from their site – completely outside of WordPress. It’s just embarrassing when I’ve sent my subscribers a “check out my latest post!” email and it turns out the post hasn’t yet been published. I didn’t even think about the host or the server’s timezone. Something definitely changed, though, because this used to work perfectly and it works on other WP sites I have (and I’ve had GoDaddy mucking around in this site, at my request), so I’ll reach out to them. Thanks again!

Thanks very much! Can you please advise as to whether you have the guide referenced above yet? Thanks again.

Thanks, that’s what I figured. We don’t have a static home page, so we were hoping that each post could have its own header. Thanks again.

Hi Evan, that does help, thank you! Except that what we want is a different header image on every post. So, for example, on this post(https://whostolemypockets.com/why-you-need-to-give-your-feelings-permission/), we want the “angry phone” image to be in the header (and not in the post). Does that make sense? Thank you again! – Dawne

Thanks, Adnan and that’s interesting because this was Google saying “that’s what’s wrong!” And yes, you’re correct, I could have asked for your support (and your support is always great), except this whole problem started when GoDaddy was trying to “fix” a completely unrelated problem! ?? And they broke GA, among other things. However, they are still working on my site and I see that they have now disabled the Analytify plugin for now, in the course of their trying to fix other problems. So I’m going to hang on and wait until they finish that work. Thank you so much! – Dawne

Hi Burhan, thanks and yes, I just contacted support. Thanks again! – Dawne

Oh yes please! In fact, I landed here tonight to ask this exact same thing. It’s exhausting, and I think there were just three days between the last update and this newest one. It’s driving me crazy. I appreciate that things are changing quickly but it seems that it would be fairly simple to provide a changelog showing whatever text has changed. Thanks.

Yes, GoDaddy just installed Fast Velocity Minify and EWWW Image Optimizer. I will reach out to the link above, thank you!

Aaand…it’s happening again. Checked with GoDaddy and they said that it appears that the tracking code should be functioning correctly and my Analytify dashboard says that it is turned on, but nothing in GA,and GA now says that I have a nonstandard implementation on my home page. Help! Thanks.

Actually nevermind – it seems to be a bizarre issue with iThemes. When I disable the plugin, the General Settings revert to http. When I re-enable it, they revert to https. I don’t understand this but I’ll live with it.

Thank you! I think I found it – checked in Chrome’s Tag Assistant and it’s firing, checked via private browsing in Firefox and found the tag ID on the page, and checked the Real Time Users in GA and found someone. Now I’m just waiting to see at least one view incremented in GA. Thanks so much again.

Thanks! I think these are the logs, yes?

Also, I read through the link you suggested (https://deconf.com/check-google-analytics-tracking-works/) and cannot find the tracking ID in the page source. Thanks.
