You can schedule posts for the future on your blog. When the time and date comes around, the post will automatically be published to the blog. If you want to schedule a post, click the Edit link next to the date/time in the Publish module.

Note that this same option is used if you would like to simply modify the publish date/time of an existing post.

Change the date and/or time to something in the future and then click the OK button.

Notice how the area has changed. Instead of Publish on: it will say Schedule for: and the button has changed from Publish to Schedule.

Click the Schedule button when you are ready and the Status will update as well.

When the date/time you set passes, your blog post will automatically be published for your readers to see.
