Default Scheduler is an add-on module to Scheduler in which a default Publish and Unpublish time can be set. This allows the content creator to establish default Publish and Unpublish dates per content type.
This module was developed for the publishing industry where a regular (print) publication affects the publishing and unpublishing of content regularly.
DIRECTIONS:
- Like Scheduler all the options are found on the content type editing page:
admin/content/node-type/[content-type] - Edit your Scheduler settings
- Edit & enable Scheduler Default tabs: Scheduler Defaults and Scheduler Default Exceptions.
Sample Use Case:
You want all new Article nodes to automatically publish on 'Tuesday at 5am' to coincide with the paper's publishing time.
But you want any Articles created on Tuesday to start the following week Tuesday.
So you need to create an exception:
- Select Exception Type: Publish
- Select Exception Days: Tuesday
- Create Exception: Next Tuesday 5am
To set a valid recurring (un)publish date please check out PHP strtotime: LINK
Valid examples include:
- Next Tuesday, 5am
- Next week
- Friday, 1pm
Requires: Scheduler module.
Note: Drupal 6 only at this time.
