Autoblogging a novel...

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by amanamission, Jul 17, 2007.

    I have several unreleased novels that I would like to release in blog form, a page at a time, over the next year or so using my on-site Wordpress. The problem is that there are over 200 pages in each, and I don't want to have to be on hand to add the next post that whole time.
    Is there a technique or plug-in to set all the posts up at one time, and schedule them to release in sequential order at the rate of one per day, to keep the blog fresh with original content?

    Wordpress allows 'future posts' by default.
    It's easy to find in the options on the right hand side (in Admin, when writing your posts)
    I'm not logged into WP right now, so I can't describe it better, but you should be able to find it.

    Good luck with your book :)

    I found it! You have to save the post as a draft and then go back and edit the Post Timestamp to the date/time that you want the post released.

    Thanks for your help
    :)
