How to get scheduling to work
-
My posts are not publishing at the scheduled date/time. They appear to post though as soon I go to the edit page without clicking the pupilsh/update button. How can I get the posts to publish automatically?
Thanks,
SteveThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

scheduled posts publish when the first visitor visits your site after the publishing time. The published time is then set to the scheduled time, even if the post published several hours later than the scheduled time.
Having a scheduled post publish late is common for sites that have low visitor counts where there might be a period of time with no visitors that matched the scheduled time period

Has that changed recently? I am certain that back months ago my posts auto published at the scheduled time. I checked a post that published at 5:31 am on 9/15/2014, at the exact time I scheduled it. Having posts publish when the first visitor visits makes the scheduling virtually useless in my opinion. How can I submit a change request about that?

Is there someone else that can weigh in on my scheduling question? I have talked to another WordPress blogger and he said his posts get published at the scheduled time.

They have always worked the way I explained. also you will not see the real published time unless you subscribe to your own blog using email and then you need to check the time date stamp on the email. I have tested this several times also
Maybe over on the WordPress.ORG software there is a Chron Job Plugin that watches the server time and trips a post publish, but not on WordPress.COM. The standard schedule Post works the same on WordPress.ORG software unless they have changed it recently
