posts not scheduling
-
although I have tried several times, using different browsers, restarted my computer and so on, I cannot get a post to schedule or save as a draft today. The green bar goes across the top of the page about 98% of the way and stops. Is there an issue with the publishing system today?

@alisahuntsman – I haven’t seen any wide-scale publishing or scheduling issues. Are you still having trouble with this? It looks like you were recently able to schedule a post titled “european rye bread; a tuesdays with dorie post” for 1/20/15.

after multiple attempts I was able to publish. Not sure what was the problem since I am using a current version of google Chrome. It may have been network issues here at home.

I’m glad this eventually started working again! If you have any additional trouble with this, please let us know.

Hello,
Looks like the trouble lingers. Before contacting you again, I went down the list of things to do that you sent me and checked each one. Everything is as it should be but I am still having issues with publishing.I work on a mac, am using Google Chrome-it is up to date as is my adobe flash player. Settings are as you suggested. Not sure what else I could do. At one point, it published the post in 1969 rather than on the date I selected. What more can I try?
Thanks!

Hi!
Can you let me know the title of the post that was published in 1969? It looks like you may have fixed this already.
When you create a post, are you trying to publish it immediately or schedule it for the future? Also, are these posts you work on and finish in one shot or are you saving them as a draft and then re-opening them to publish later?
