Herb’s Blog, Herbdate 22150 – 722:
Thanks to the scheduling feature in WordPress I am able to set this to go at about the time I have been posting. During my training period my posts may be short, like this one or I may wind up missing one or two. I’m going to see, though. It’s kind of become a matter of personal pride and a sense of accomplishment to post every single day without missing. You are all wonderful and encouraging readers and I appreciate your coming by all the time.
My schedule this week is 3pm to 11:30pm and today was an odd day because I had a few errands to run and unlike some of the younger set of my readers, I need sleep for some reason. I know, what a silly old fogey, but that’s life.
I will be answering all your comments and going around and leaving comments within a couple of days. Next week is a normal week and the week after is one I can work around as well. They want me to know what each shift does and then I will find out a more or less regular-ish schedule.
At least it isn’t like when I got fired from the calendar factory. All I did was take a day off.
The scheduling feature is something I’ve relied upon for the past few years. On generalized topics, it allows me to review and edit a post a day or two before it’s published. I wonder how many other WordPress bloggers use this feature regularly.
Oh, I think many do use it. I am happier when I get ahead but I just don’t stay ahead.
The only posts I ever publish immediately are reblogs. All others are scheduled in advance, because I’ve learned that a post needs time to marinade; it’s almost always the case that when I think it’s ready to go and hit ‘publish’, I find that it actually still needs more work.
This makes complete sense.
Taking days off might work but then the calendar would be confused
Lol. I guess you’re right.
I use it all the time, but you, Herb, are the bane of my life 😉 How on earth you know what subject I have scheduled and then post on the same subject just the day before, I do not know! Good luck with the new work schedule and the WP schedule. The calendar gag, BTW, made me LOL 🙂
Which day did you take off?? It couldn’t have been all that important. I guess I missed it
Laughing is good for the soul
Thank you.
Just rolling with the punches, huh?
Yeah, for now, anyway.
