      I have created 8 rules so that they automatically publish a post every 1 hour.
      The rules were created more than 5 minutes apart so they don’t run at the same time.
      However, after the first automatic execution, the posts are no longer published according to the frequency defined by each rule and I have to manually execute the rule so that it publishes the post.
      In addition, all the rules are rerun many hours later and at the same time saturating the server.
      See screenshot.

      Is there an option to schedule the execution at a specific time for each rule?
      I tried using the “Delay Between Multiple Requests – Global Settings – (milliseconds)” option but it didn’t work because all the rules were rerun at the same time.

      Your plugin is good, but it might be better if it had the option to schedule posts to set the specific start and end time for each rule of post, see screenshot.

      Hello,

      First of all, thank you for your purchase.

      You can improve the scheduling accuracy of the plugin if you replace the wp_cron module of WordPress with a server side cron.

      wp_cron is a default system WordPress uses to schedule tasks automatically, but it has a major flaw: it requires website visitors to access your page for it to function. Because of this, I recommend replacing it with server side cron. Please check details on how to do this, here: https://themeisle.com/blog/disable-wp-cron/

      Regarding individual scheduling of rules, I noted your idea, but this is not possible at the moment. The only way is to create rules which don’t run at the same time (have different scheduling times). If you combine this with the server side cron replacement, it will run in a more precise way.

      Let me know if this helped.

      Regards, Szabi – CodeRevolution.
