Hello,

Hi Jack,

When scheduling posts, you also need to set the post date, by enabling clicking on the "Enable fields" button at the bottom of teh "Post Fields" section and selecting date, then populating the date field with the date, this should be in the format "YYYY-mm-dd HH:ii:ss".

You need to set the date field to a date in the future.

You are correct, i thought that was the date i had used.

Can you click on the history tab of the importer and take a screenshot of what was imported.

Then edit that post id shown e.g. if its #11262 then visit /wp-admin/post.php?post=11262&action=edit, and take a screenshot of the posts sidebar / publish box to show the status and date.
