Post won't publish at scheduled time
-
I cannot seem to get my posts to publish at the time, or sometimes the day, I want them to publish. I know when my readers usually see my posts, so I have certain times of the day I want them published, and I am developing certain series that I want published on certain days, so I want my posts publishing when I schedule them. How do I ensure that my posts will publish when I set them?
Thanks in advance! Enjoy working with WordPress.com.

To confirm your timezone is correct know the default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General. Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.
Know that scheduled posts do not actually publish until a visitor clicks into the site after the scheduled date and time.
You can edit the post and change the datestamp and timestamp and click update. These images may be helpful:

I changed the timezone. Also helpful to know that “scheduled posts do not actually publish until a visitor clicks into the site after the scheduled date and time.” Thanks, timethief!
