rocketpig Posted May 6, 2023 Posted May 6, 2023 We run four installs of IPB and only one of them is suffering from this problem. We have writers who write entries that later require approval from an editor/admin. That's fine, works as expected. But if the admin edits the piece and sets the publish date in the future, after approving it the article publishes automatically within the next hour or two. Sometimes it's immediate, sometimes it's five minutes, but it's publishing *way* ahead of schedule. Is this a common bug in 4.7.9 and would providing system logs or anything else help to better explain the underlying issue?
Jim M Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Do you have an example which we can look at which encountered this?

It was also visible to users before it published. https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/early-season-review-will-the-twins-be-contenders-r14099/
Marc Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Sorry, we would need more information. We need to know when it was scheduled for, when it actually showed, and an example user it was showing to before published (along with where it was actually showing).

Yeah, I know this is a tough one to display, I wish I had a better way to display the info needed. I can grant you admin rights if that would help. I don't recall when it was originally scheduled because one of our editors messed with it after it became visible. What I do know is that it became visible almost immediately - certainly within an hour of being approved. It was visible to all users in all user states before it published. Normally, only administrators can see something scheduled to be published.
Marc Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Could you please let us know the next time you have one of these, and take note of the details there, then let us know. We would need this in order to proceed
