Frequently Asked Questions
Depending on the number of posts on your site, this can take a while. How long? That depends on multiple factors such as:
- the size and speed of your server. Shared hosts will be much slower than dedicated hosts.
- the number of posts to be indexed. A site with 10,000 posts will take 10x longer than a site with only 1,000 posts.
- the size of each post. Sites with posts that have 1000 words and many comments take longer than those with 100 words and near zero comments.
- and/or hosting limitations. Certain managed hosts (i.e. WPengine and Kinsta) will limit cron jobs from executing on their servers. In such cases, you will have to send a request to your host to enable crons. This is a common request and your host will know exactly what to do.
In short, large sites may have to wait 1 – 2 days or more for all posts to finish indexing. Sit back, relax, Netflix and chill, get a coffee, or take a scenic drive.

Letter From the Founder
For over 10+ years, our DraftPress team has been developing, maintaining, supporting, and iterating WordPress plugins.
From our super popular plugin Header Footer Code Manager to 39 other plugins, we’ve been all-in on WordPress since the early days.
With almost 750,000+ sites use at least one of our plugins, you can rest assured that you won’t find a more dedicated team with a proven track record.Almost 20 years ago, our team was one of the first in the WordPress industry to create online news, local directories, and magazine themes.
Based on our learnings from that deep experience, we created many plugins to support publishers. Now, we’re excited to launch a bundle of plugins for multi-author sites for fellow Rocketeers.
If you run a news site, magazine, directory, or any multi-author publication, then you’ll want this bundle. After all, who doesn’t love a WP plugin on LTD, and especially when it’s 5 plugins for the price of 1!Â

Can be integrated with Buddypress?
With most of the author bundle, we have implemented short codes, so that you can insert the element (author box, author list, author photo, author stats, etc) wherever you need inside of your site. Wherever you can insert a shortcode, you can insert any of these author elements.
Is this compatible with most themes?
Hi John – we developed the author plugins to inherit styles from your theme where possible, so in most cases the text should inherit the colors and fonts from your theme. There are also color customization options for some fields where you can override the color if for some reason the styling is not coming through.
