Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
JMSetzler Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 I think it would be really nice to have the ability to create a post and schedule it to be posted at a later date/time. This would allow me to do a LOT of work ahead of time on my forum. Abies, GazzaGarratt, Rhett and 11 others 12 1 1
Claire Field Posted October 14, 2016 Posted October 14, 2016 I think that there is this option already, at least there is for forum (can't remember right now about pages). If you mean something like scheduled posts like on WordPress or queued posts like on tumblr, I agree this is a needed feature on IPS. Am fairly sure they don't have that. OptimusBain 1
Optic14 Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 This would be very nice - currently I'm relying on using a spreadsheet and a calendar manually for content scheduling of forum topics. I'm a more visual person so if we can have a calendar view that includes visual dots/tabs that would be great. OptimusBain 1
DesertIslandFruits Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 This is also a feature I've had requested - is it buried anywhere and I simply can't find it ? OptimusBain 1

Joy Rex Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 I wonder if the 'hide post' and 'unlock post' features when posting work that way?

Billie Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I agree, a scheduling option similar to FB would be a really nice feature. OptimusBain and Debi Silber 2
CheersnGears Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 There is scheduling of posts in Pages. I use it all the time. openfire and OptimusBain 2
MMXII Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 In Pages this is one of the features I use the most. It would definetly be great to have this in Forums, too. openfire, OptimusBain, Debi Silber and 1 other 4
Goxy Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 Any updates on this topic since scheduling posts on forum would be extremely helpful
InsidePI Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Agree, this would be great for moderators to help manage our workload. Seems like a relatively easy option to implement as well?
The Studio Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 We desperately need this feature. Honestly I find it hard to believe it's not already included - it's essential for any community running any sort of scheduled event. I've sorted through the available apps & I cannot find any that offer this. Am I missing it? Has anyone found a way to do this in 4.5.3? TNTThom, OptimusBain, Nina St John and 1 other 4
bfarber Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Pages and Blog both offer the ability to schedule entries to post publicly at a later time. SC36DC 1

But we have a WP blog that is 10+ years old with thousands of posts, so we don't use the blog app. And we run these events forum-style. We post a daily challenge and our customers post their replies - it's a section of our forum.

Rhett Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 I have brought this up internally for further review, I can't promise anything at this point, but it's being considered for a future version. Thank you for all of your feedback on this item. NobFox, OptimusBain, GazzaGarratt and 10 others 8 5

OptimusBain Posted April 25, 2021 Posted April 25, 2021 I second this future. I need the schedule option for posts and topics.
Jordan Miller Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 This could be pretty useful! Same with a "draft" option for topics (which we have a separate topic about I believe). GazzaGarratt 1
GazzaGarratt Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 This would help no end. A universal option across the applications that create content would be absolutely amazing. Especially when time is a finite resource these days and sometimes you want to put something up at a specific time but you know you won't be around to do it at that moment. I imagine most people that work alongside their community as a hobby or/and second job it would be critical to their efficiency and possibly a huge wellbeing impact for people.

Jotted this down. We'll see if this is something worth taking a closer look at in the future. 🔮 OptimusBain, GoDuBois and GazzaGarratt 2 1
NAWAC Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) Bump. Anymore news on scheduling a topic and/or post in the future? This would be a great feature. Edited October 5, 2021 by NAWAC
Orelie Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Hi @Marc Stridgen is it now possible to schedule post on the forum? I can see how to "locked" them and unlocked them. But the message still appears even if they are locked. Thank you Edited February 4, 2022 by Aurélie Grignard
