Hi Donald – Can you provide more information about what you are trying to do? Also, do you have a link to the plugin page – I didn’t locate one called Posts to Page.

And just to be clear, this post is about scheduled posts not about sending posts to a page. :-)

Do you know how to send your posts to a paticular page or set up your post to go to a particular page. ‘Post to Page’ – plugin. Using wordpress 2.8.6.
Cheers.

Hi Daniel – I think that script forces the cron job to run …?

I don’t have any experience with that plugin – it’s probably best to ask the developer or other people who are using it.

thank you very much!!
I found another patch which is uploading a PHP script(Pugin) from http://blog.5ubliminal.com/. Works well!

Will do the below patch also from what you sent me.

Help more problems:
I deleted all my auto posts created from my amazonautopost plugin and then decided to reimport them/repost them and I keep getting a duplicated post message. Deleted the Amazonautopost and started again and still get the duplicate post message. Can you tell me where I might start to look. The content/config file???? Thanks again for your great job.

Hi Daniel – This article is out of date and was for version 2.6 The scheduling issue in 2.9 seems like a different one.

You may want to try this patch, which replaces three files. I’ve used it with 2.9 but not with 2.9.1 RC1

Hi Chris – Thanks for the info. I had never thought of that problem. Most hosts give you the specific IP for your site so that should be easy enough it use rather than localhost.

Just a side note. If you have more than one website configured on your IIS server you might have a problem with using the localhost (127.0.0.1) address. It is possible to configure IIS to listen on a specific IP address instead of “All unassigned networks”.

The point being that it might be better to determine the IP address of the web site (ex. 192.168.1.10) instead of using 127.0.0.1. The concept should be the same, connecting to a specific IP address instead of the site name.

Oups sorry, error in previous comment

$cron_url = $ip . ‘/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron’;

should be replaced by

$cron_url = $cron_ip_fix . ‘/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron’;
