Bug #12030
Issue with scheduled publishing
0%
Description
I set up a blog post to be scheduled at 10:32 this morning. It is 12:06 and the post has not been published: https://screencast.com/t/7d0N958RrYFh. Here is a link to the post: https://bmcccetls.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/post.php?post=3296&action=edit&classic-editor. Any idea why this would happen? I'm going to go ahead and manually publish, but would be great to know how to avoid this issue in the future.

Looks like the problem might be that the site's timezone is set to UTC-5 https://bmcccetls.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/options-general.php. This is only correct for NY during Standard Time; during DST, NY is on UTC-4. I'd suggest using the New York timezone setting, which accounts for DST.

Tentatively closing. Let us know if there's still a problem here, and thanks!

Updated by I haven't tried scheduling another blog post, so I don't know if it's still an issue, but I'll let you know if I see it again.
