Testing Scheduling

in experiment •  6 years ago 


Today is Thursday the 20th. You are reading this "tomorrow" on Friday the 21st of June, a.k.a. "today". So basically from your point of view, I "was" writing this "yesterday". How's that to kick off your Solstice?

You guessed it! This is yet another Steem Blockchain test. In this one, I am testing the scheduling function on WordPress. Every WordPress site has the function that allows posting at a future time/date. In essence, I could write a week's worth of posts and schedule one to post each day of the week.

As you read this, if indeed you're reading this on the 21st, I am most probably attending the London Steemians Meetup in Kensington, organised by the awesome @redrica. This would normally mean I'd not be able to post anything through the day, so what a perfect time to test this function!

I have also gotten a suggestion from the SteemPress team about how to fix my banner that fails to propagate to Steem. It has been suggested that I change the Markdown format to HTML and see what happens.

Scheduling already exists in some of the dapps on the blockchain, I must mention. eSteem definitely has it, so even if you don't have a WordPress site like me, you could use eSteem to achieve the same thing.

I am fairly confident that this will work as intended. I am slightly less confident about the banner, however, but I guess we shall find out tomorrow. Or "today".

Or we could read it a day from now, in which case we will be reading it the day after tomorrow from the perspective of the original writing time, except that at that point it will again be today. Hey, you actually kind of have a time machine with your WordPress site!

Hahaha. Yes indeed :) . Thanks for time-travelling with me :)

:'((( I want to be there with you guys in Kensington!

But hey, the scheduling thingy worked - congratz :D

Would have been nice to have you there. Londers now have to come to Amsterdam :)

Experiment successful. Hope you have great time during the meet up

Yes I did. Just got home now :)
