It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/default-post-datetime/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1001021) # Default Post Date and Time By [Greg Ross](https://profiles.wordpress.org/gregross/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/default-post-datetime.1.3.1.zip) * [Details](https://fur.wordpress.org/plugins/default-post-datetime/#description) * [Reviews](https://fur.wordpress.org/plugins/default-post-datetime/#reviews) * [Installation](https://fur.wordpress.org/plugins/default-post-datetime/#installation) * [Development](https://fur.wordpress.org/plugins/default-post-datetime/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/default-post-datetime/) ## Description When you create a new post in WordPress, the publish date is set to ‘immediately’, this plugin allows you more control over this behaviour and set a date or time of your choosing. For example, you can choose to have new posts scheduled for: * first Tuesday of next month at 5:30pm * next Monday at 09:00 * Friday at 19:30 Any format that PHP’s (strtotime)[http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.php] function can understand can be used. Settings are on a per user basis, just go to your profile page! This code is released under the GPL v2, see license.txt for details. ## Screenshots * [[ * A screenshot of the admin settings page. * [[ * A screenshot of the user settings page. ## Installation 1. Extract the archive file into your plugins directory in the default-post-datetime folder. 2. Activate the plugin in the Plugin options. 3. Customize the settings from the the Your Profile page, if desired. ## FAQ ### I’m formatting a date/time that seems to be valid and works but when I hit the validate button it says its wrong? The validate button uses JavaScript to do it’s work and JavaScript does not have a strtotime() function and so not all cases may be supported. If the configuration you have set is working as you expect you can safely ignore the validation errors. ### Can I use non-English words in the date/time fields? No, strtotime() does not support internationalization and therefore neither does this plugin. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c1adb360e9ad9eb79f0888bd981630f8461d8169fa3593171dfb38f399ad7a7f? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[simple and time saving](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-time-saving-2/)󠁿 [iamrichardjames](https://profiles.wordpress.org/iamrichardjames/) 3 di Setembar dal 2016 Great little plugin – when I had to publish lots of back-dated posts, this saved me from the mind-numbing job of changing the publish date every time. Couldn’t be easier to use.
