"Add to Queue" Scheduling for Drafts
Adds an "Add to queue" link under drafts in the Posts list that schedules the post into the next free publishing slot, such as weekdays at 9:00, without picking dates by hand.

"Coming Soon" Block Listing Scheduled Posts
Registers a "Coming Soon" block, rendered on the server without a build step, that lists the titles and dates of your next scheduled posts to build anticipation for upcoming content.
"Preview" Banner on Unpublished Content
Shows a clear banner at the top of the page whenever someone previews a draft, pending or scheduled post, so reviewers never mistake a preview for the live page or share it by accident.
Add a Five-Minute Cron Schedule
Registers an "every_five_minutes" interval that your own scheduled events can use with wp_schedule_event().
Color Post Rows by Status
Tints draft, pending, scheduled and private rows in admin list tables so unpublished content stands out at a glance.
Content Statistics Widget
Summarizes published, draft and scheduled items for every post type, plus media files and comments awaiting moderation.
Countdown for Scheduled Posts in Admin Lists
Shows how long until each scheduled post goes live, such as "in 3 hours", next to the date in admin lists, so the publishing queue is easy to read.
Drafts, Pending and Scheduled in "At a Glance"
Adds draft, pending and scheduled post counts to the At a Glance dashboard box, linked to the filtered lists.
Editorial Calendar Screen
Adds a Posts > Calendar screen showing a month grid of published, scheduled and draft posts on their dates, with links to edit each one and arrows to move between months.
Email Alert When WP-Cron Stops Running
Warns the admin by email when scheduled tasks are more than an hour overdue, so you notice before scheduled posts, digests and backups silently stop.
Email Authors When Their Post Is Published
Sends the author a short email with the link when one of their posts goes live, whether published by an editor or on schedule.
Find and Remove Orphaned Cron Events
Adds Tools > Orphaned Cron Events, listing scheduled tasks that no active plugin or theme handles any more (often left by uninstalled plugins) and removing them after you confirm.
Follow-Up Email a Few Days After Sign-Up
Sends new users a second, friendly email a few days after they register, with tips or links to get started, scheduled automatically with WP-Cron.
Hide Express Shipping After the Daily Cut-Off
Removes your next-day or express shipping option after a set time and at weekends, so customers are not promised a delivery you cannot dispatch.
Keep Completed Background Tasks for 7 Days
Shortens how long WooCommerce's Action Scheduler keeps finished tasks from 31 days to 7, which keeps its database tables small on busy stores.
Log Scheduled Tasks That Take Too Long
Measures how long each scheduled task (cron event) takes to run and records the slow ones under Tools > Slow Cron Tasks, so you can spot the plugin that makes WP-Cron sluggish.
Open a Contact Form 7 Form Only Between Two Dates
Shows a Contact Form 7 form only during the dates you set, for example an application period, and blocks late submissions from pages left open.
Pause WP-Cron Outside Production
Stops scheduled tasks from running on local, development and staging copies of the site, so a cloned database does not send newsletters, sync orders or run backups twice.
Publish Posts That Missed Their Schedule
Checks every few minutes for scheduled posts stuck with a "Missed schedule" label and publishes them, a common problem on low-traffic sites.
Remove Leftover Data From Uninstalled Plugins
Adds Tools > Leftover Plugin Data, where you enter a prefix (such as old_slider_) to see how many options, post meta, user meta and scheduled tasks use it, and delete them after reviewing the counts.
Require a Featured Image Before Publishing
Stops posts from being published or scheduled until a featured image is set, in both the block editor and the classic editor.
Require a Title Before Publishing
Prevents posts and pages from being published or scheduled without a title, avoiding "(no title)" entries in menus, feeds, search results and social shares.
Run WP-Cron From a Real Cron Job
Stops WordPress from checking for scheduled tasks on every page view; you trigger wp-cron.php from your server's cron instead, which is faster and more reliable.
Run a Daily Task With WP-Cron
Schedules a custom task once a day and gives you a function to fill in, for example to clean up data or send a report. Includes the scheduling and the hook.
