In most cases, this 'publish time' field will default to the current date and time.If you want the content to be published immediately, keep the default settings.

  1. Enter the content editing page:Log in to the AnQi CMS backend, navigate to "Content Management", select "Publish Document" or edit an existing document.
  2. Locate the "Publish Time" field:In the various settings of the content editing interface, find the option "Publish Time." It usually appears in the form of a date and time picker.
  3. Set the future publish time:Click the date and time selector, and you can intuitively select a future date and specify it to the hour and minute.For example, if you want to publish a marketing article at 9:00 AM sharp on Monday, just set the date to Monday and the time to 09:00:00.2006-01-02 15:04:05The standard format is "Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second".
  4. Save content:Confirm that the publication time setting is correct, then click the save or publish button. At this time, the content will not be displayed on the front page immediately, but will enter a waiting state.

Once the "publish time" you set arrives, the Anqí CMS system will automatically change the content from the pending publish status to the published status and immediately display it on the front page to visitors.This process is completely automated, no manual intervention is required.
