Description

WordPress lacks the ability to schedule content updates. Keeping your posts and pages up to date manually can often be a waste of valuable time, especially when you know you’ll need to update the same page again soon.

Use Cases

  • Promotions: Automatically publish versions of your pages that contain temporary promotions and schedule content updates that remove these promotions once they expire.
  • Events: Schedule content updates for pages that list events. Automatically publish an updated version of the page after an event ends.
  • SEO: Schedule series of content updates to keep your pages and publishing dates current and satisfy the freshness algorithm.

Key Features

  • Updates page content and publishing date
  • Compatible with any post type
  • Compatible with Elementor and Oxygen Builder
  • Nested content updates (multiple updates of the same page scheduled in a row)
  • Lightweight code
