Hello. I am planning a forum feature where I will make a weekly post but I want to prepare these in advance (1-2 months). I discovered this excellent thread about topic timers. [Scheduling topics for future publication](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-create-a-timed-topic/60731) Then I saw something else about Admin Topic Timers. I cannot seem to find more details to understand what the difference is between Admin Topic Timers and what is described in the link above.

Can someone please point me to information about this. I need to decide what is the best way for me to create these weekly posts for my forum before I start setting it all up.

Thank you!
