 * Hello,
 * Sorry for a noob question. For some reason I cannot detect the pattern or find
   the answer in the documentation. What order are the posts re-published in? In
   other words, does the plugin start with the earliest post and then work its way
   to the most recent? Or is it random? Or is there some other formula?
 * Tks for your help!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fin-which-order-does-plugin-publish-posts%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * By default the plugin selects a random post from the pool of posts that qualify
   for republishing. You can change this behavior by changing the value of the Select
   Random Post option.
