Hi!:

I'm working on a news site that needs this module to publish/unpublish news on diferent pages using Panels+views+taxonomy (as I describe here).

For me, Scheduler is basic ... and dont run.

I create a node(s) with some text tile, some text on body, no category, set on Scheduler a time to publish and set Time zone, and in publish options, published and promoted to the front page and i use run Cron manually to test if the nodes are published or not. I also test it using no Time zones, with no effect. But the nodes never publish and/or unpublished. The node appears with a pink background (still unpublished?) and even appears with this pink background on the page zones defined in Panels using the trick of the link above.

Scheduler dont give any advice on installation on MySQL, and I assume that this go correct.

Since for me this module is not only basic, plus more-more-more needed feature, i kindly ask for some help, that will be greatly appreciated. I could provide any info need to check wahat could it go wrong.

I found the problem: there was a phased time between the time that Scheduler put on the options

Format: 2007-05-13 09:06:23. Leave blank to publish on the time of form submission.

and the real time

2007-05-13 13:06:18 +0200

The result is that this "9" must be an "13" (plus 2 hours of the time zone)

There is a way to add this phased 7 hours modifying the code module?. Since I use the hour and date offer by the module (09:06) runs fine, but is a nuisance calculate the hour every post to match the real time.

There's a time zone input box to do just that.

I am experiencing the same problem as the OP, only I haven't been able to fix it. My "unpublished" posts turn to a pink background, but are still visible on the Views page I have set up. I manually run cron to make sure it runs (while testing), even though it is set to run hourly.

As far as "There's a time zone input box to do just that." I'm not sure what that means. Does that mean the scheduler options is supposed to have a time zone box? or the drupal admin date/time section?

I'm almost finished with mysite, but I really need to get the unpublishing working.

I know it is something I am doing wrong..
Thanks!

Figured it out.
I had to set a filter to display only the node type I wanted to display (Event, which I had).
I also had to set a filter of "Node:Type = Published" to display only published nodes.
