What is Post Status?

Any popular WordPress blog will likely have multiple drafts that will be published when they’re finished. If you run a multi-author blog, you also likely have posts waiting for review. That is a post status that means an author submitted an article and it’s waiting to be approved by an editor.

Authors and editors are two of the default user roles that WordPress offers. Every user role, except subscribers, can submit posts. However, not all roles have permission to publish drafts or schedule them.

Post scheduling is essential if you want to plan a content calendar and not publish every post manually. With WordPress, you can easily schedule multiple posts ahead of time.
