Something I've been thinking about for a while is scheduled posts, wondering how I could implement them, not that I can imagine using them very often.
It's suddenly dawned on me how I could get them working:
- apply a scheduled date/time to a post
- change the blog to only show posts with a date/time older than now
There would be no need to trigger anything regarding 'go live' times as everything is done at display time.

This is a scheduled post that is being posted at 11:05 and shouldn't appear until 11:10.
Update: it worked on the blog but showed in the RSS feed, I'll need to see what's happening.

It looks like I've fixed the scheduled posts showing in the RSS feed. I've added a cron job to rebuild the feed every 30 minutes so will check that this shows up after the appropriate time.

We found out today that our youngest daughter has Covid. She's had cold like symptoms for a couple of days, performed a test this afternoon and it came back positive. It turns out that someone where she works has also had it but was still going in. Apart from the cold symptoms she seems okay.

@colinwalker Hoping it is a mild case. My sister caught Covid before Christmas 2020, and it bowled her over completely for a couple of weeks. Not fun at all.
Thanks. Sounds like she's a few days in but still only got cold-like symptoms so hopefully it's not going to be too serious. 😉
