Schedule posts in WordPress

A neat little feature within WordPress is the ability to schedule your posts so you can do a number of them in one sitting and then have them trickle out over a few days.

From your Edit Post screen click on Edit from the Publish section (found at the top right hand side).

Change the Date to sometime into the future and click Ok

Then click Schedule

Now back on your Edit Posts screen you can see that the post date is in the future. No further action is necessary on this post.

Note: The time your post appears is dependent on the time offset set under Settings -> General as shown below. You will need to change the Drop down list so that the date and time on the right matches your current timezones time.

Remotely enabling remote desktop

You can enable remote desktop on a Windows 2003 server machine remotely by completing the following steps:

Connect to the remote servers registry by Opening up the registry editor on your machine (Click Start -> Run -> type regedit and click ok) and clicking File -> Connect to Network Registry

Type in the remote servers name and click Ok.

Now navigate to the following key HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server and change the fDenyTSConnections (REG_DWORD) from 1 (Remote Desktop disabled) to 0 (Remote Desktop enabled) as shown below.

On the servers I’ve done this to so far there was no reboot necessary. Though in your situation you may need to run shutdown -m \\remoteservername -r if you still cannot connect to your server after this has been done.

Remotely Shutdown a Computer

Using the Shutdown command you can shutdown a machine on your domain or another machine you have admin rights to by using the following command at a command prompt:

shutdown /m \machinename /s /t:30 “This machine will log out in 30 seconds” /y

For more switches type “shutdown /?” which will give you information on restarting the machine and many other options.

Using the shutdown graphical interface: using shutdown /i
