Yes, you can schedule your blog post to be published at a later time in WordPress. Here’s how you can do it:
- Log into your WordPress dashboard.
- Navigate to “Posts” -> “Add New” to create a new post.
- After you’ve written your post, instead of clicking “Publish”, click on “Edit” next to the “Publish immediately” option in the “Publish” panel on the right-hand side of the screen.
- In the drop-down menu that appears, select “Schedule…”.
- Choose the date and time you want your post to be published, then click “OK”.
- Click “Schedule” to finalize your post’s publishing schedule.
Note that scheduled posts require a visit to your site to be published. They will be triggered by the first visit to your site on or after the exact date and time you set2. Also, if you have more than 100 scheduled posts, you should reduce that to less than 100 as only 100 scheduled posts are possible at a time.
