Documentation
The plugin is executing every minute and on every execution all accounts and pages are being checked & at least one post from each of them is being shared. You can share one post per minute and predefined number of posts per day in total (Free plugin version). Note: If you’re using your own keys, per day limits are not applicable.

Post on this page : Weather this page should be considered when posting articles
Custom schedule : Specify days of the week or custom timing during the day by selecting or manually entering the values separated by comma (e.g. 9:30,14:30). Note: This circumvents the “min. interval” option
Share Frequency: How frequent do you want post(s) to be shared. You can use decimal values (0.1 => every 6 minutes).
Minimum Post Age (days) : Selecting posts with minimum age of specified days
Maximum Post Age (days) : Selecting posts with maximum age of specified days

Share Multiple Times : How many times to share individual posts. E.g. With this value=2, if all posts have been shared at least once, the plugin is starting another “round” of sharing
Order : Whether to share oldest or newest posts first

Posts
Select account, search posts, exclude specific posts:
Exclude (local): Exclude post from a previously selected account
Exclude (global): Exclude post from all pages
Share now: Share the post immediately (the post will be shared on every page with “Post on this page” option checked). Doesn’t use or rely on post share counter. Maximum 1 post per minute limit applies.
Reset All Counters: Reset counters of all posts on selected account/page. Useful in case you want to restart sharing of all posts.
As an additional info, you have “Shared in” information, specifying where the post has been shared and how many times (rounds/cycles)
Action Logs
Last 100 shares executed by the plugin. Pay attention to “Server time” and “Last revivify execution” value. You can use that to inspect if your revivify scheduler is being executed appropriately. For e.g. in case you’ve setup a share frequency to 1 minute (0.01) and time gap between those two values is great than that set frequency, without anything being shared in the Action Log, it’s a sure sign something is not set appropriately or simply not working.
Reset log : Removes all of the log lines
Start/Stop : Start or stop sharing posts

Pinger (PRO)
WP ReVivify Service relies on WP Cron system/scheduler and there’s one major disadvantage. When there’s no traffic on your site, WP Cron might not trigger ReVivify Social scheduled posts. To circumvent that, we’re offering a sub-service called WP Pinger. That service is, based on your saved schedule in WP Revivify Social plugin, calling your website. On any account you add or more precisely on any schedule you set Pinger is creating a schedueld callback. Simple GET/POST request towards your website at a designated time.
WP Pinger is using a website URL you’ve entered to generat appropriate call to your website.
WP Pinger is only available in PRO version of the WP ReVivify Social plugin and only for the owners. Third party client websites are not included.
Pinger will attempt 3x to reach your website on pre-defined schedule (you’ve set in your plugin). On each successful post publication/sharing, counter will reset. In cases where website is not reachable or if there are no posts to share, by reaching the 3rd attempt, scheduled times are deleted from our system and no further call will be attempted. You can reset your schedule by re-saving your general account/page settings (within your WP ReVivify Social Plugin) or by re-starting ReVivify plugin (Start/Stop sharing within the plugin settings)
