Today, a random collection of thoughts
My favorite part of NaBloPoMo? The fact that some of my favorite bloggers post so often I can barely keep up with my reading.
I made meatloaf for dinner. My hand is tingly from the frozen ground beef, and smells like a meaty club. I'm not in love with the smell, but I'm compelled to keep sniffing it anyway.
I rarely order from catalogs, and almost as rarely order online. And yet, I receive multiple catalogs EVERY DAY for things I don't buy. I feel guilty at the waste of all that paper as I toss it into the recycling bin. Make it stop!
I still can't get my scheduled posts to post. I spent most of last night trying to wrap my feeble little mind around MT's documentation, Wikipedia's explanation of cron jobs, my friends' sometimes overly technical speak (it doesn't take much) and my own miniscule knowledge of Unix and vi. As far as I can see, it never should have stopped working. The minor changes I made had no noticable effect on, well, anything. I will persevere! And maybe cry a little.

I too have the same problem with scheduling posts. Mine haven't worked from the beginning. If you find a solution, I'd love to know it.

I can't remember how I got it to work for previous versions, but I'm pretty sure I found the answer in the install guide or documentation. I think I had to add a line to a file while logged into the server. I was trying to find some more info to help you, and now I can't log into the server for some resaon. I think someone is trying to tell me something! Anyway, look for things like cron job, cron tab, scheduled, and look up cron on wikipedia.
The thing is, for the new version, I think it's supposed to be set up the same. And I think it is. It's just not working, and I'm not edumacated enough to figure out why :)
