Hello @sianalcock21
This is a known issue that we are currently troubleshooting. Replication has been a challenge so far; it may be this is related to a change in WP Engine caching behavior.
The plugin does not use wp-cron, so that CRON task analysis you mentioned is not meaningful.
@sianalcock21 Can you please confirm that Revisions 3.0.12-rc2 resolves the revision publication issue on your site?

After uploading and activating, take a look at Revisions > Settings > Scheduled Revisions. The new option “Use WP-Cron scheduling” should be automatically enabled on WP Engine sites. If not, you’ll need to enable it.
Hi Kevin – thanks alot, I confirm that has fixed it on our WPEngine staging site with WPEngine Alternate CRON enabled – as detailed here:
https://wpengine.com/support/wp-cron-wordpress-scheduling/
I wasn’t sure if you were saying that that service is needed or not. Anyway, it is working.
Can I also check Kevin. Once you submit a revision and schedule it. Does the scheduled publish only happen if approved? Or if scheduled, will it get published whether approved or not?
When a revision is scheduled directly from the post edit screen (by a user with full editing capabilities setting a future date and then “Schedule Revision”), no further approval is needed.
When a revision is created using the “New Revision” link or button, it is created as an unapproved revision. If the date is set to future, that is treated as a requested publication time; the revision still needs to be approved for the scheduling to take effect.
We have a request to change this behavior such that if an Administrator or Editor sets a submitted revision to a future date, scheduling is approved automatically. That option will likely be supported in an upcoming release (but not today’s release).
@sianalcock21 PublishPress Revisions 3.0.12 is released, fixing the scheduled revision publication issue you reported.
