Won’t post when scheduled

    Hi. On a couple of occasions now I have scheduled a post for early morning publishing on a following day and awakened to find it did not work.
    The time and date (on the calendar) seem to be correct but it simply doesn’t happen. I have gone into settings to check that my clock is right..and it is…but I have also noticed lately that the time that drafts are saved are way out of whack. Is there a setting I’m not seeing? Thanks.

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

    Did you actually “publish” the post? Even with scheduled posts, you have to click “publish” and then it will publish the post at the scheduled time.

    Also, go to settings > general and make sure that your time offset from GMT is correct for your particular time zone.

    Ah, well why didn’t I think of that? I’ve been reluctant to click ‘publish’ lest it throw up the post before it was ready. Thanks very much.That makes sense. I will check the clock setting again, though it reads about right. Don’t know why the saved drafts times are hours off.
    Thanks again.
