    Very useful bit of information.

    These post status and visibility options come in handy many times. We have a multi-author blog wherein one post had to be taken off urgently due to an issue that had arisen out of the contents and we immediately changed the post as “private” without fumbling with it in frenzy. It gave us time to review the post and attend to the issues at leisure.

    The developers had been very thoughtful indeed to have provided such options.

    The one feature I’ve never been able to take advantage of with WordPress is the ability to schedule posts in the future. For some reason with my host (Yahoo) is doesn’t seem to work and have not yet found a suitable fix.

    It took me a while to get scheduling to work on my server too. It turned out the problem was the web server couldn’t find itself via dns lookup, which WordPress needed in order to run its scheduling scripts.
    If you have shell access, you can test this with the ping command; log on to the server shell, and if your blog is at http://www.domain.com then try “ping http://www.domain.com” If you get an error like “no route to host” or a bunch of failed packets, then that’s why the scheduling isn’t working. You’d have to contact them and try and get them to fix it so that the server can find itself via the site’s domain name.

    This is very nice functionality that goes mostly unnoticed by beginner WordPress bloggers. It’s really handy to be able to password protect posts. For more info on private blogging, check out http://www.wordpress-for-begin.....press-com/
