Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Auto Post Scheduler
Auto Post Scheduler hooks into the WordPress WP-Cron for scheduling. These cron events are typically only checked when a visitor loads any WordPress page on the site. If there are no visitors, there can be no cron checks and therefore no site. If there are no visitors, there can be no cron checks and therefore no auto post checks. If you are using .htaccess to allow,deny by IP, make sure to allow the IP of your WordPress site itself as the wp-cron uses that IP address. Error: aps_auto_hook not scheduled, likely another plugin misuse of cron_schedules This happens when another plugin incorrectly replaces cron_schedules with their own schedules instead of correctly adding to existing schedules, so the other plugin actually removes our aps_auto_hook. Other plugin code needs to be fixed.
WordPress calls WP_Cron on every page load to check for cron_schedules. If you have a high traffic site, you might want to use caching or set cron checks on a schedule instead to save on resources. See this post for more information. To do this: Make sure Auto Post Scheduler is enabled. Edit /wp-config.php and add the line define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true); From the server command line, edit your cron with 'crontab -e' and add the line */5 * * * * wget -q -O -"http://www.mydomain.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron='date +\%s'" > /dev/null2>&1 and change 'mydomain' to your site domain. This crontab entry will call wp_cron every 5 minutes.
As far as I know, WP Super Cache must not hook into when a post status has changed. User MassimoD reports "Quick Cache does, W3Total Cache does, Hyper Cache does, Gator Cache does. Only WP Super Cache doesn't."
Yes! In case you think of something that is not covered in the plugin settings, here are the available filter hooks: aps_eligible_query - passed value is the array that will be used by WP_Query to find eligible posts. Any changes will also apply to aps_recycle_query as well. aps_recycle_query - passed value is the array that will be used by WP_Query to find recyclable posts if there are no eligible posts found. aps_update_post - passed value is the array that will be used by wp_update_post when publishing a draft or pending post. aps_recycle_post - passed value is the array that will be used by wp_update_post when recycling a published post. Example Usage #1: I only want to publish or recycle posts that have the tag 'featured'. Add this code snippet to your theme's functions.php file or equivalent. function my_aps_eligible_change($args) { $args['tag'] = 'featured'; return $args; } add_filter( 'aps_eligible_query', 'my_aps_eligible_change' ); Example Usage #2: I want to add a post meta field when a post has been recycled. Add this code snippet to your theme's functions.php file or equivalent. function my_aps_recycle_post($args) { $postID = $args['ID']; add_post_meta( $postID, 'aps_recycled', 1, true ) || update_post_meta( $postID, 'aps_recycled', 1 ); return $args; } add_filter( 'aps_recycle_post', 'my_aps_recycle_post' );
Hopefully this table will help. Hopefully. Eligible Posts? Pick Random? Recycle Posts? RESULTS over multiple auto post checks drafts no no drafts ordered by date and published. if no drafts nothing happens. drafts yes no drafts picked randomly and published. if no drafts nothing happens. drafts no yes drafts ordered by date and published. if no drafts then published posts ordered by date and recycled. drafts yes yes drafts ordered randomly and published. if no drafts then published posts ordered by date and recycled. drafts, publish no no drafts and published posts are ordered by date and either published or recycled. drafts, publish yes no drafts and published posts are ordered randomly and either published or recycled. drafts, publish no yes drafts and published posts are ordered by date and either published or recycled. Recycle Posts does not apply since there are always eligible posts. drafts, publish yes yes drafts and published posts are ordered randomly and either published or recycled. Recycle Posts does not apply since there are always eligible posts.
