I installed scheduler under Drupal 4.7.2, along with jscalendar, but cannot get scheduled publishing to work. If I enter a date under "Publish on:" (either through jscalendar or just typing it in) and then click "Submit", the story gets unpublished but does not publish at the specified time. If I go back and look at the "Publish on:" field again, it's always blank. I notice that jscalendar does not put in a timezone offset, but it doesn't seem to be the real problem. Anyone have any clues? I'd love to have this feature working!

This should be fixed now in CVS. Make sure your run update.php again on update 2 if you haven't.

Thanks for your reply. I installed the latest version from CVS and ran update.php, but got a couple of errors like this:

Unknown column 'timestamp_hidden' in 'scheduler' query: ALTER TABLE scheduler CHANGE timestamp_hidden unpublish_on int(11) NOT NULL default '0' in /home/openleft/public_html/drupal-4.7.2/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.

And now the schedule option doesn't appear at all, but everything else seems to be behaving normally. Is it possible I didn't use update.php properly? I'm a drupal newbie, and couldn't find any good info on it.

Sorry, scratch that. I found the "enable publishing" option in the admin settings. But I don't understand the time format, and how to use the time zone setting. Should I set my time zone, and the publishing time in that time zone? The zone keeps going back to -1100.

Thanks for your help.
