  I scheduled a new entry on my blog for 13:30 pm today. Fifteen minutes later, and despite constant page refreshes, it has yet to appear. And yes, I’ve doublechecked on a different browser. https://mccombsonmain.wordpress.com/blog/

  The shortlink, which I used on social media, directs the user to a page can’t be found.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello @proverbialreads,

  When you check the post, does it say that it is published or in draft status? I know that sometimes I find that scheduling might have the wrong date or time depending on when I wrote it, and when the blogs timezone is set for

  Thank you,
  Kevin

  Note that scheduled posts don’t necessarily appear at the precise time you set them for. They appear the next time someone visits your site AFTER the time they were set for. You say you refreshed, but did you visit your site whilst logged out of WordPress.com, which would have caused the scheduled posts to appear.
