In a discussion about scheduled publishing dates, spdegabrielle reported that scheduled posts don’t update their publication date, causing them to appear out of order in /latest. NateDhaliwal suggested resetting the bump date via the topic admin wrench. Moin confirmed the feature works on their forum, sharing screenshots and video of a successfully scheduled topic that updated its timestamp and appeared at the top of /latest. Moin also noted users can manually adjust timestamps or use a timer to trigger automatic bumping. tobiaseigen followed up asking if spdegabrielle resolved the issue, to which spdegabrielle replied affirmatively with thanks. The issue appears resolved for the original poster, though the root cause or configuration differences weren’t fully detailed.
Hi,
I’ve just noticed that scheduled publication does not set the date, which means if the post has been in progress for some time it does not even appear in the ‘Latest’ posts view.
Is there any way to change this? Either change the behaviour of the post or set the publication date so it appears in latest in the publication order?
Hi there, perhaps try resetting the bump date? In the topic admin wrench (at the bottom of the topic; not post admin wrench)> Reset bump date.
Hmm, I think it works fine on my forum.
For testing, I used a topic that was created about a year ago in a private category. I used the admin wrench to set a timer for publishing.
Once the topic was published, the timestamp was updated, and it appeared at the top of /latest.
Do you notice anything that you do differently?
To fix the topic you published, you can try to manually change the timestamp or use the timer to trigger an automatic bump.
@spdegabrielle were you able to figure out how scheduled publishing works to your satisfaction? If not, can you explain in more detail what you have tried, if possible with screenshots?
Yes thanks. Thanks for the nudge.
