Drag and Drop Post Scheduling with the Editorial Calendar WordPress plugin

This WordPress plugin makes scheduling your blog posts as easy as drag and drop. My blog in this example is my http://guestposting.info membership site and I use this Editorial Calendar plugin to arrange when to drip out all the bonuses that customers get in a logical order without having to do any date math!

    Wow Chris! Your video of my calendar is great. Thank you so much for doing it. I’m really glad the calendar is working well for you. Do you mind if I link to the video from the plugin site?

    We’re also hard at work on the new version and would love some feedback. Are there any features you would like to see?

    Thanks
    Zack

    Feel free to link to it or embed it anywhere – loving the plugin and it came in great use for me :)

    Can’t think of anything that it is missing – I am using it with Wishlist based membership sites

    @Zack – I was just informed that the WordPress autosave/post revisions can cause problems with the plugin …

    if you leave your wordpress making millions of autosaves, calendar goes crazy. As I was doing my challenge, I experienced what Jeanette refers to: calendar complaining that a post had already been moved, and posts disappeared, went back to 1969, etc. So I went to my phpmyadmin and deleted all the autosaves, that strangely are called something else, forgot for now what, added the no autosave plugin, added the no revisions plugin, and now everything works fine.

    I don’t think the problem you are seeing is related to auto saves. This sounds just like the date format problems that I’ve been seeing. They should hopefully be fixed in version 0.5.4 which I just released.

    Thanks for the feedback.
