## वर्णन

Publishes draft posts automatically on a schedule. Includes per-post-type intervals,
an optional publishing window (e.g. only publish 9am-6pm on weekdays), email notifications,
logging, and an admin dashboard with start/stop, manual publish, filter, and refresh
controls.

**Features:**
 – Publish drafts at a configurable interval, globally or per post
type. – Optional publishing window and weekend skip, so drafts never go out overnight
or on weekends unless you want them to. – Optional email alert when a draft is published
or when a publish attempt fails. – Simple start/stop controls and manual publish
button. – “Next Up” preview on the dashboard shows exactly which drafts will publish
next, in order, before it happens. – Per-post “Exclude this draft from auto-publish”
option, for the odd draft you want to hold back by hand. – Activity log with timestamps,
post titles, and permalinks, exportable to CSV. – Basic stats: total published, 
last published entry, 7-day activity chart. – Works with selected post types and
categories.

### Privacy Policy

Controlled Draft Publisher stores an activity log (`cdp_log`) in the WordPress database
when logging is enabled. The log includes post IDs, titles, timestamps, permalinks,
and post types for published drafts. If email notifications are enabled, publish
summaries are sent to the configured notification address using WordPress’s built-
in mail function. No user data is collected or sent externally. Logs can be cleared
or exported via the dashboard. All plugin options are removed automatically when
the plugin is deleted.

### Notes

 * Ensure your site meets the PHP and WordPress version requirements before installing.
 * Server cron or WP-Cron behaviour may vary on low-traffic sites; consider using
   a real cron if reliable timing is required.
 * Translation-ready: Includes `controlled-draft-publisher.pot` in the `languages/`
   folder for translators.

## स्थापना

 1. Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install via
    the WordPress admin.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress admin.
 3. Go to TGH  DP Settings to configure post types, intervals, publishing window, and
    email alerts.
 4. Use the TGH  Draft Publisher dashboard to start/stop the scheduler or manually 
    publish drafts.

## नेहमी विचारले जाणारे प्रश्न

### Can I control which post types are published?

Yes, you can select one or more post types in the plugin settings, and optionally
give each one its own interval.

### Can I stop it publishing overnight or on weekends?

Yes. Enable the publishing window in Settings and set a start/end time, and optionally
tick “Skip weekends”.

### Does it support custom intervals?

Yes, set the number of minutes between publishes globally, or override it per post
type.

### Can I get an email when something is published?

Yes, enable email notifications in Settings and set the address to send to (defaults
to the site admin email).

### Is publishing logged?

Yes, if logging is enabled the plugin stores a rolling activity log and updates 
the last/total counters.

### How does scheduling work?

The plugin uses WordPress cron (WP-Cron) to schedule publishes. For low-traffic 
sites, set up a server cron job (e.g., `*/5 * * * * wget -q -O - https://your-site.
com/wp-cron.php`) for reliable timing.

### Can I manually publish a draft?

Yes, use the “Publish Now” button on the dashboard to publish a draft immediately.

### Can I stop one specific draft from being auto-published, without changing my settings?

Yes. Open the draft in the editor and tick “Exclude this draft from auto-publish”
in the Draft Publisher box in the sidebar. It’s skipped until you untick it or publish
it yourself — your interval and post type settings are unaffected.

### How do I see what’s going to publish next?

The dashboard’s “Next Up” panel lists the next few drafts in the order they’ll actually
go out, using your current post type/category settings.

The plugin is cool, it’s simple – that’s what I was looking for.

## बदलांची यादी

#### 1.7.1

 * Fixed: the shared “Our Plugins” hub page functions/constants were renamed from
   the generic tgh_hub_ prefix to a unique tghhub_ prefix, avoiding a naming-collision
   risk raised by WordPress.org’s Plugins Team during a companion plugin’s (BackBurner
   Post Archiver) manual review.
 * Fixed: the shared hub’s admin menu no longer registers at a hardcoded top-level
   position; it now uses WordPress core’s default (safe) placement.

#### 1.7

 * Added a “Next Up” preview on the dashboard, showing exactly which drafts will
   publish next and in what order.
 * Added a per-post “Exclude this draft from auto-publish” option (matches the same
   exclusion pattern used in our BackBurner Post Archiver plugin).
 * Confirmed compatible with WordPress 7.0.2.
 * Refreshed the readme’s tags for accuracy.

#### 1.6

 * The plugin’s admin pages now live under a shared “TGH” menu alongside our other
   plugins, with a landing page cross-promoting everything we’ve built.
 * Added a Ko-fi donate link.

#### 1.5

 * Added per-post-type interval overrides.
 * Added optional publishing window (start/end time) and weekend skip.
 * Added optional email notifications on publish and on error.
 * Added uninstall cleanup so plugin options are removed when deleted.
 * Simplified CSV export (removed unnecessary WP_Filesystem indirection that could
   fail on some hosts).
 * Added a small dismissible notice on the plugin’s own admin pages pointing to 
   our other plugin and theme.

#### 1.4

 * Added taxonomy settings to select publishing from categories and tags.

#### 1.3

 * Fixed white screen when loading Settings page.
 * Change Recent Activity log view per page from 10 to 50.
 * Added Settings link in Plugins page.

#### 1.2

 * Added start/stop controls to the dashboard.
 * Fixed timezone display for “Next Scheduled Run” (uses site timezone, e.g., BST).
 * Improved scheduling logic for dynamic intervals.

#### 1.1

 * Added CSV export for activity log.
 * Added 7-day publish history chart to dashboard.
 * Enhanced logging with post type and permalink details.

#### 1.0

 * Initial release.
