Posting calendar change?
-
In the last week or two I’ve noticed that the blue dots on the scheduling calendar that signify a post has been published or been scheduled for that date have disappeared. It’s only a small thing but I found it very useful. I am wondering why they vanished and if I can do something to get them back.
Thanks

Hi there, it’s possible that this was due to the recent update to the WP software on all our sites. Likely it’s a temporary issue. Give it a day or two and if it still doesn’t shake out, please post back here.

Hi folks, just coming back to ask if this is still an issue for you.
If it is, please let us know with what browser and device OS you are accessing WordPress.com. If not through a browser, then let us know your device and other details.

Thanks for the follow up, they haven’t returned sadly.
I’m using iPadOS 21.6 and it is the same when I access via Safari or the Chrome app (143.0.7499.108) -
Hi there,
Thanks for reporting this! This is a known issue we’re tracking. The dots that show scheduled post dates on the calendar have disappeared due to a recent update in the Gutenberg plugin.
For now, you can click on the “NOW” option on the scheduling calendar and you should see all previous blue dots showing your scheduled posts.
We’ve reported this to our developers and are monitoring for a fix.
Thanks for your patience!

Thank you again for reporting this. I will close this thread as Solved, since we are aware of this issue, tracking it, and have provided a temporary workaround.
Happy blogging! ;)
