Controlled Draft Publisher

Publishes one draft post every configurable interval, with logging and an admin dashboard.

<p>Activate the plugin and all users who can edit other users posts (editors and admins) will get a new widget on their dashboard showing all draft and pending posts, pages and any custom post types. The standard ‘Recent Drafts’ widget is disabled.</p>
<p>This makes no changes for subscribers, contributors and authors.</p>
