• Hello,

    I’m currently experiencing an issue with the scheduled posts, not publishing. These posts remain unpublished for hours or until I go into the post and manually select update. My website is http://www.ameliahay.com and my site is hosted via GoDaddy’s Managed WordPress. I don’t have access to the server in which my sites are hosted. I have another site with GoDaddy that is working well (www.ameliahay.co.uk), so I’m a little confused.

    I’ve run various tests and I’ve deactivated my plug-ins including jetpack and I’ve changed my theme from Divi to twenty sixteen and I’m still getting the missed schedule error.

    Amelia 🙂

    Our plugin publishes missed posts when a user loads the actual site, as it’s attached to the header. I’ve tested it on 2 GoDaddy hosted sites – one on their WordPress hosted service and one on a dedicated server. They both worked.

    I’d be happy to take a look at your installation and see if there are any conflicting plugins. Email: jennifer@mosswebworks.com

    There is nothing wrong with my plug-ins or theme. I have deactivated them, changed themes, and I always get the same result, a missed schedule error.

    Have you checked the TIMEZONE in Settings->General? That has to be set to your local.

    This isn’t a simple timezone error, that’s the first thing I’ve checked. I’ve had this problem since 10 September 2016. I’ve tried many things, spend hours on the phone to GoDaddy with no resolution.

    Sounds frustrating! AFAIK this only happens on GoDaddy servers, however like I said, my plugin has worked on several sites on GoDaddy.

    I have made a couple tweaks to the plugin, so try updating to 1.7 and see if that works for you.

    Again, happy to help you on the backend if you want to email me the credentials. No charge.

    @msameliadh @mossifer Amelia and Jennifer, I just wanted to chime in on this forum that you two were chatting on two months ago. I too use GoDaddy’s Managed WordPress and Jetpack and have been unable to schedule a blog since September 14th. Up until September 14th, I scheduled a blog once per day and was always 7 days ahead at least in my writing. And on the 14th, when that scheduled time rolled around, my blog went to my site, but not to the social media or the subscribers I have connected to me. In the past two months, Jetpack has been trying to figure this issue out and have maintained that I’m not the only one dealing with this issue. But lately, the problem has morphed slightly. Now I just get my blog in a Missed Schedule state like Amelia was saying and even when I visit my site, it won’t even go out. So, that brings you Jennifer into this. I discovered your gem of a plugin and while it does work in the sense that once I visit my page after the Missed Schedule time, the rest of the publicize does not work. The subscribers still don’t get their emails nor do the social media get the reposting. So for now I’ve been having to manually publish all of my blogs each day as that is the only way I can get them to go out successfully.

    So Amelia are you still getting the same issue? Jetpack believes it’s something to deal with GoDaddy because there are others who use Jetpack currently and do not have this scheduled issue. I would love for others to chime in on this. And Jennifer, do you know of anyone who uses Jetpack and GoDaddy, who schedules blogs and gets them to publish not just on the site, but also to the rest of the publicize with the social media and the subscribers… I look forward to hearing from the both of you in here…

    Sincerely,
    Andrew

    The plugin was created specifically for a client on GoDaddy because their caching doesn’t work with some scheduled posts.

    However I’m not sure GoDaddy is the issue with SUBSCRIPTIONS. It’s got something to do with Jetpack’s not seeing that the post is published.

    Check this thread, where the Jetpack tech chimes in:

    @mossifer Thanks so much for responding. I don’t understand why GoDaddy’s caching all of a sudden started affecting my scheduled blogs. I’m so glad you created the plugin I’m using. Just curious how does it work to correct the error with GoDaddy?

    Also, is there an ability to create a code snippet to make that Jetpack issue with publicize work? They still maintain through an email thread I have with them that they don’t know what it is? We’ve seen now several releases since this began and they still haven’t corrected it? Have you been in touch with them and truly do you think they understand what’s wrong with their software? Because I still get the impression from them they think it’s GoDaddy?
