## Publishing Scheduler (v1.3.2)
### Celery Beat Tasks
Located in `igny8_core/tasks/publishing_scheduler.py`:
| Task | Schedule | Purpose |
|------|----------|---------|
| `schedule_approved_content` | Every 15 minutes | Assigns publish times to approved content |
| `process_scheduled_publications` | Every 5 minutes | Publishes content when scheduled time arrives |
| `cleanup_failed_publications` | Daily at midnight | Retries or cleans up failed publications |
### Scheduling Flow
```
Approved Content → schedule_approved_content (every 15 min)
Check PublishingSettings
Assign scheduled_publish_at based on:
- publish_days configuration
- publish_time_slots configuration
- daily/weekly/monthly limits
Set site_status = "scheduled"
process_scheduled_publications (every 5 min)
If scheduled_publish_at <= now:
- Set site_status = "publishing"
- Execute publication
- Set site_status = "published" or "failed"
```
### Site Status State Machine
```
not_published → scheduled → publishing → published
↓ ↓
↓ → failed
not_published (if unscheduled)
```
