Advanced post scheduling in bulk - is this possible? (3 posts)

    I have a number of posts all prepared to publish, currently saved as drafts.
    I'd like to be able to select them in a group, and then schedule them to post sequentially, at an interval of say, 3 hours, beginning on a specific date/time.

    Does anyone have any suggestions about how I might do this?

    Currently, the best idea I've got is to download the XML file from the site ("exporting"), using an editor/script to modify the pubdate info, and then uploading ("importing") the XML back into WordPress. That idea, however, makes me a little nervous.

    Thoughts, ideas?

    thanks in advance!

    Hey,

    We're having this exact same issue and are contemplating developing a plug-in which supports doing exactly what you say (in effect having a button saying 'add to scheduled stack' in each post and rules for how often and when a post should be pushed out of the stack). So:

    Do you want to develop it and we'll chip in for you time? Or, do you want us to develop it and you chip in for our time?

    :)
