1. Core Features & Settings

Access all controls via WordPress Dashboard > Revive Posts.

Revival Frequency

Choose the heartbeat of your site. You can set the plugin to pick an old post every 1 day, 2 days, or 1 week to maintain a consistent update cycle.

Time & Age Controls

  • Time of Day: Specify the exact hour (00:00 to 23:00) the revival triggers. Target your peak traffic hours for maximum impact.
  • Minimum Post Age: Ensure only truly "old" content is refreshed. Set a limit (e.g., 90 days) so newer posts stay in their original place.
Pro Tip: SiteLinx Social Integration
If you have the SiteLinx Social Suite installed, revived posts are treated as brand new events. This automatically triggers re-sharing to your Google Business Profile and other social platforms.

2. How the Revival Logic Works

The plugin uses a sophisticated, SEO-safe method to refresh your content without risking data loss.

  • Intelligent Selection: The system identifies the oldest published post that meets your "Minimum Age" criteria.
  • Published Date Update: It updates the timestamp to the current moment, naturally pushing it to the top of your RSS and blog feeds.
  • Integrity Preservation: Content, images, and comments remain untouched. Only the date signal is refreshed.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Why hasn't a post been revived today?
WordPress tasks (Cron) only run when someone visits your site. On low-traffic sites, this can cause delays. Solution: Set up a "Real Cron Job" in your hosting panel to ping wp-cron.php every 15 minutes.
Does this change my post URLs?
Only if your permalink structure includes the date (e.g., /2023/05/post-name/). If you use the "Post Name" structure (e.g., /post-name/), your URLs remain exactly the same.
Can I exclude specific posts?
Currently, the plugin targets the oldest eligible posts. To keep a specific post from reviving, ensure it doesn't meet the "Minimum Age" criteria or temporarily set it to "Private."
Is this safe for SEO?
Yes. Updating content freshness is a standard SEO practice. It signals to search engines that your information is still monitored and relevant to current readers.
