Revive Social Custom Schedule Feature
This is a Pro Feature! Purchase the Pro version of Revive Social here.
In Revive Social you can select a sharing interval that is applied to all accounts connected to the plugin.
Purchasing the Revive Social Business or Marketer plans lets you do a bit more refining with your post shares by providing according to two schedule types for every connected account:
Recurring - Which lets you set the interval in hours which you'd like shares to be done.
Fixed - Which lets you set which days or the week and which times you'd like posts to be shared on those days.
Both these schedule types are able to be set on a per account basis, meaning Facebook shares can have a recurring share schedule while LinkedIn has a fixed schedule.
To get started, head over to the Custom Schedule section of Revive Social and select the social account you'd like to configure a custom schedule for. Click the Scheule Type Drop down to select between Recurring & Fixed schedule:
For recurring schedule, enter a number into the field. You can enter a whole number such as 2 (which means share a post ever 2 hours) or 1.5 (which means share a post every 1 hour 30 minutes).
Selecting the Fixed option will let you choose the days of the weeks you'd like to share the posts and what times on those dates.
The Green highlighted days are the active days. So as per the screenshot above, the plugin would share content according to the following schedule:
Tuesday, Saturday & Sunday at 9:30AM, 11:00AM, 2:10PM on those days
Note: The time options are in 24hour format.
Share one post per day from multiple published posts
If you publish several posts at once and want Revive Social to share only one per day to each connected account, combine a Fixed schedule with a single daily time slot and turn off Enable Instant Sharing By Default.
1. Set a fixed daily schedule
- Go to Revive Social > Custom Schedule.
- Select the social account you want to configure.
- Set the Schedule Type to Fixed.
- Select the days you want shares to go out.
- Add one time entry — for example,
09:00.
Revive Social shares one post per time slot per account from the queue. This assumes Number of Posts in General Settings is set to 1 (the default). Increasing that value will share more posts per slot.
2. Route newly published posts through the queue
By default, Enable Instant Sharing By Default is on. This pre-checks the share-on-publish checkbox in the post editor, so every post you publish is shared immediately rather than entering the queue. When you publish several posts at once with this on, all of them go out at the same time.
To prevent this:
- Go to Revive Social > General Settings.
- Turn off Enable Instant Sharing By Default.
After this change, newly published posts enter the sharing queue and are picked up at the next scheduled time slot.
📝 Note: Revive Social uses a continuous queue, not a fixed batch. When multiple posts are eligible, the plugin shares one at each scheduled slot per account. To control which posts become eligible, use the Minimum Post Age, Maximum Post Age, and category or taxonomy filters in General Settings. See also Working with Revive Social Sharing Queue.
