What is timestamp?

Surprisingly, many bloggers don’t know about this neat WordPress feature. Timestamp lets you choose the date and time that your post will be published. A lot of well-known bloggers keep their blogs updated regularly by writing posts in advance and timestamping them. This feature is also good to be used when you go on vacation, write a few posts in advance and schedule them throughout it.
How to utilize this feature?

It’s very easy to use this feature. After you’ve written a post, before clicking the Publish button, look for a box in the right sidebar called Post Timestamp and do the following:

• Check the Edit timestamp box;
• Choose the date and time that you want the post to be published.

Then, hit the Publish button. Now, your post will only be published once the customized date and time comes.

You’ve just timestamped a post!

I thought that I had timestamped this post, but I apparently forgot to click the publish button. o.O
