Scheduling of Posts Not Working – They Are Published
-
While I have posts scheduled for the future. I tried 3 times to schedule a post for Thursday morning and all 3 times, the post was immediately published. The 3rd time I captured the information.
The first image (link below) is of the test Post clearly set to be scheduled for 10:16 tomorrow. (My blog is set for a 24hr clock – no AM/PM)

From the point of the image above. I click on the “schedule” radio-button. (It has clearly been updated from “Publish” as it should be.)
But the link below shows how it is immediately published.

I know you’re in the middle of rolling out a maintenance release, but something has gone horribly wrong.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

OK this only happens for the “old” post editor. Of course this is the editor that is invoked from the dashboard. (Maybe that is “old” too)
If I use the “new and improved editor – which may be new, but I don’t think is much of an improvement – I can schedule posts in the future. Though the workflow to make that happen seems to have been designed by someone in love with Microsoft’s “Are you sure” mentality.

https://wheelgun.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php brings up the “old” editor by default. If I want to switch to the “new” editor, it wipes all of the html in favor of markdown. Which I also don’t want, since it potentially makes it harder to migrate away from WordPress. (Something I’m sure you want to restrict.) Besides, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a markup language, especially if you can touch type.That dashboard is the most useful interface you have. (shows comments, what’s been posted, what’s about to post, basic stats, most recent drafts, … all at a glance.) Is this deprecated? Is the “old” post editor no longer supported?
