Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Automatic Post Publishing Scheduler version 2.1.6 as active, updated 10y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.4.
Overview
About this plugin
This plugin allows you to gain very precise control over when posts are published to your site.
Features
Allows the creation of any number of time slots for post publishing
Admin users are able to allow or disallow publishing on any given day(s) of the week through a simple interface
Further control is allowed by specifying dates that will be explicitly allowed (or disallowed) for publishing, thereby overriding the weekday setting – as an example, if your publishing schedule allows for publishing on Tuesday, but a major holiday falls on Tuesday and you don\’t want publishing to take place on that particular Tuesday, simply specify it in the easy-to-use interface.
Any admin/editor user can publish a post ‘NOW’ by clicking the “publish now” link in the posts screen.
Any admin/editor user can alter the scheduled date by using the quick-edit screen.
Normal users (authors, etc) can alter the scheduled time/date of their posts, but the defined time slots will still be respected.
Additional Information
Known Issues:
At this time, even though duplicate time slots are allowed, they are not working. For best results, avoid duplicating time slots.
