# Scheduling Future Posts

 * Hello,
    I am not sure if this is a WP bug or a purposeful feature. If I want 
   to schedule a post on the same day but at a later time, eg. I want to publish
   the post later in the evening on the same day I am not able to do this. Even 
   if I select a future time and schedule a post, that post goes live immediately.
 * Please resolve or suggest a solution.
 * Thanks,
    Dharmesh

 * You can schedule posts in WordPress. If you’re unable to do so, it may be something
   else on your site, like plugins. Try turning them off.

 * I can reschedule if there is a one day difference. I think scheduling is handled
   by date and not time.

 * No, it’s handled by time. I schedule posts for ‘later that same day’ all the 
   time.
