One of the things I’ve discovered about blogging is that on some days I have the time/thought-train/willpower to write a couple of posts, and at other times I’ll go for weeks without having a chance to write anything.
What I thought would be neat is if there was a way I could store some of the posts from my more productive days and have them published when a certain amount of time’s elapsed since my most recent entry.
WordPress can already schedule posts for publication on a future date but this requires you to know when you want to post, and thus far more organization that I’m generally capable of.
So… I decided to write a Plugin that would do it all for me!
Post Queue allows you to write posts and have them queued for future use. Choose how long you want to wait since your most recent post and after that time has elapsed Post Queue will pick one of your queued posts and publish it.
If you want to create a few posts for those dry spells, or stockpile entries and have them posted on a regular schedule, Post Queue should be just what you’re looking for. Check it out here!

This plug in is almost EXACTLY what I have been looking for. You Rock!
As a humble request, I would love to have more control over the “Publish an entry from the queue when there has been no post for:” section with that addition of a XX hours option.
I post a minimum of once per and would like the XX hours option to allow me to queue it up for multiple daily posts.
Thanks again!

Richard,
Sure, I can add that pretty easily and will do so when I get home after the holidays. If you’re comfortable with PHP then its fairly easy to customize these times yourself, the available list is right at the top of post-queue.php and consists of a name followed by the duration in seconds.
