Forward: Queue Posts
Forward: Queue Posts adds a simple publishing queue to WordPress. Instead of choosing an exact publish date manually, editors can queue a post or page and let the plugin place it after the previous queued or scheduled item.
You can choose the publishing window, the minimum time between queued items, whether weekends should be skipped, and how new queued items are placed.

Good for

How scheduling works
Forward: Queue Posts uses your WordPress site timezone.
When an editor clicks Queue, the plugin starts from either the last queued item or the last scheduled post, depending on the selected queueing method. It then adds the configured minimum interval exactly, normalizes the result to the selected publishing window, and moves weekend dates to the next allowed publishing day when Avoid weekends is enabled.
Data and privacy
Forward: Queue Posts does not connect to external services. It stores plugin settings and the internal “last queued” timestamp in WordPress options, and updates queued posts or pages with normal WordPress scheduled-publish dates.
