For those who don’t use WP, there’s a collection of new blog post links at the bottom of the admin dashboard. While I was playing around with the settings, I saw a post about holding a day of blog silence for the Virginia shooting victims. I considered simply posting the image and timestamping it for the 30th (after all, I just learned how, it’s easy, and it’s not like it makes a huge difference either way - I’ve never been a daily poster), but as I read the comments in the thread, I changed my mind.

Yesterday, when I tried to post the personality test I found on my computer, I discovered a significant difference between WordPress and LiveJournal. My time settings were off by an hour (I blame Daylight Savings time) so I changed the timestamp to the actual time.

The post didn’t show up. I ended up playing with a lot of settings before I figured out that WP lets me schedule posts for later release that way. I’m too used to LJ’s way of letting you timestamp it anything you want, but it all shows up at once. I like WP better (big surprise) so I’m hoping this will enable me to be more regular in my posting.

And yes, I’ve changed my time setting to fix the problem, but I’ve left the other timestamp as it was. It isn’t like it matters that much which hour I posted;)
