Hello,

I'm testing WFReview plugin.

Unfortunately I found it does not offer the capability of posting on a schedule basis.
I mean, the plugin is posting all the datafeed items in one time.
What I need is a posting schedule such as one post per hour or something similar.

Am I missing anything?

thanks

In step 3, the first option is setting the post date either randomly between a range of dates or based on a column in the csv. Either way, you can set the post dates to future dates and use posts will show up as scheduled. If you have any trouble with "missed schedule" posts, try http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/missed-schedule/

Thanks. I tried it -- opting for dates in a column of the datafeed file -- and got scheduled posts as expected.

However my doubt is: posting of scheduled posts will occur at the scheduled dates -- i.e. based on datafeed column -- or it has occurred when I run the import.

I mean: are future dates assigned to posts through WFReview real posting dates? (or they are fake dates only to be displayed to in the blog, with real posting occurred when run import job).

This is important because affects the ping service.
Will the scheduled post be pinged at the time when I run import job -- that means posting all datafeed in one time -- or will it be pinged at its scheduled date?

Thanks
