I have a few hundred posts set to show up over the next year.
I added tags for technorati to the first one that displayed and then saved it.
once I did that, the category count shows hundreds of entries even though there is only 1 viewable post.
when checking future posts, it does show as published, but still with a future post time stamp. Rss only shows the viewable posts.
problem is that I have a plugin that looks every 15 minutes for a formerly unpublished post that now is published before it does it's job. In otherwords, when a new post is set to 'published' and is viewable, it goes to work and does it's job. I'm thinking that it's erroring becuase it was already set to published.
is this by design? is this an error? if it's an error, how do I fix it as I do this a lot.
