Sorry Sayan,
After creating the above topic, I went to my website and there was a republished older post. I have two questions:
1. The Automatic Republish plugin has republished 3 older posts at different times put is putting the SAME date on all of them. The one that just republished today (April 9, 2020) has a date of March 19, 2020.
2. Are the settings I have the right ones to get an older blog post republished every week?
My Current Settings:
Maximum republish interval: 5 days
Randomness interval: up to 24 hours
Republish eligibility age:1095 days (3 years)– (I’d do five years but that option is not available.)

Hello,
1. The Automatic Republish plugin has republished 3 older posts at different times put is putting the SAME date on all of them. The one that just republished today (April 9, 2020) has a date of March 19, 2020.
I think you have selected 2nd Position from Plugin Settings -> Republish Post to Position. If yes, please set it to 1st position.
2. Are the settings I have the right ones to get an older blog post republished every week?
My Current Settings:
Maximum republish interval: 5 days
Randomness interval: up to 24 hours

At this stage only upto 3 years is available. So, posts which are 3 years old from now will be selected for republish.
I think this configuration is right according to your need. Using this config, plugin will get all posts whose post date is less than 3 years and republishes them in a interval of 5 days and randomness upto 24 hours is added to the 5 days.
Thanks!
Thank you Sayan. I will try this and get back with you.
