Feature Request - Allow users to schedule publication of Pages & Posts

Open patricklindsay opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

As a user I would like to be able to set a specific time and date for a page or post to be published.

Implementation Idea

  • Add a scheduled status
  • Add scheduled_at date time
  • Allow users to set to scheduled when status is draft
  • When selecting scheduled status input should appear allowing user to set scheduled_at datetime (time granularity should be every 30 minutes)
  • Create rake task which publishes all instances with status equal to scheduled and scheduled_at in the past.

As part of ENV setup developer has to setup a CRON job to run the rake task every 30 minutes or so (can do this with Heroku using the Scheduler addon).
