Future Posts Calendar Plugin | Recommended WordPress Plugins

I’m not good about blogging daily on some of my blogs.  My posts tend to come in waves, where I’ll sit down and write 3 or 4 posts in a night and then nothing for 3 days.  That’s why I love being able to schedule posts.  I can schedule out my pre-written posts for consecutive days in the future.  This allows me to still have fresh content on my blog daily for the spiders.  I dislike the way that WordPress displays scheduled posts.  They show Scheduled 12 hours from now, 2 days from now, 4 days from now, etc.  I’m not interested in having to pull up a calendar, or trying to do some math to figure out which days my advanced posts are set on.

So I found a nice WordPress plugin that shows a calendar on all pages that you are writing or editing.   Days that have scheduled posts will be highlighted in different colors.  You can mouse over those days to see the name of the posting.  Another nice feature for new posts is that you can click the calendar date and it will set that date as the scheduled date.  Check it out here:  Future Posts Calendar Plugin.
