How to set up scheduled publishing functionality in AnQi CMS, and realize automatic updates of article content?

As a website operator who has been deeply involved in AnQiCMS for many years, I know the importance of content creation and publishing efficiency for the development of the website.In daily operations, we often need to keep the content continuously updated, but manual operations are often time-consuming and labor-intensive, and are prone to disrupting the established release rhythm.The time publishing feature provided by AnQi CMS is the tool to solve this pain point, it can effectively realize the automatic update of article content, making our content operation more relaxed and efficient.

Scheduled release: The automated engine for content operation

The scheduled release feature is a core advantage provided by Anqi CMS for operators, allowing us to preset the publication time of articles to achieve automated content going live.This means that whether your team is planning holiday content, executing cross-time zone releases, or simply hoping to maintain stable output during specific peak periods, there is no need for manual intervention at the time of posting.This feature greatly improves the flexibility and automation of content operations, helping us reduce repetitive labor and devote more energy to content quality and strategy optimization.By intelligent scheduling, we can ensure that the website content is presented accurately to the target readers at the expected time, maintaining the activity and user stickiness of the website.

Set the specific steps for scheduling publication in AnQi CMS

This field usually defaults to show the current time.To enable scheduled posting, simply click on the 'Post Time' input box, and the system will pop up a date and time selector.Here, you can accurately choose a specific day and time in the future as the formal release time of the article according to the needs of the content strategy.For example, you can set the publish time to “2025-01-01 09:00:00”, which means the article will be automatically published at 9:00 AM on January 1, 2025.Make sure the time format you set conforms to the standard format of "Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second".

After setting the publication time, continue editing the rest of the article, such as the title, content, category, tags, and so on.Confirm that all content is correct before clicking the "Save" or "Publish" button at the bottom of the page.The system will automatically save your article and mark its status as 'Pending publication' until the preset publication time arrives.At that time, AnQi CMS will automatically perform the publishing operation, and the article will be publicly displayed on the website front page.During this time, you can return to the editing interface at any time to modify the article content or adjust the publish time to cope with possible changes.

The application strategy and value of scheduled publication

Effectively utilizing the scheduled publishing function can bring significant value to your website operation.It allows us to plan ahead and stock up on a large amount of high-quality content, ensuring that there is always fresh information for readers to access at any time.For example, for upcoming marketing campaigns or seasonal topics, we can create a series of articles in advance and schedule them for gradual release on specific dates, thereby forming a continuous focus on interest.

In addition, scheduled publishing is also a hidden helper for achieving SEO optimization.Search engines tend to crawl and index websites that are updated continuously, by releasing content at regular intervals, even during team rest or off-hours, the website can maintain content output and provide a stable crawling signal for search engine spiders.This helps to enhance the activity of the website in search engines, indirectly promoting the inclusion and ranking of content.For scenarios with multiple sites or multilingual operations, scheduled publishing can better ensure the synchronous launch of content on sites in different regions or languages, enhancing brand consistency.

In short, the timing publication function of Anqi CMS is not just a simple tool, but also a key link to achieve automated and efficient content operation.Reasonably plan and use this feature, and it will make your website content management more intelligent and hassle-free.
