Timezone & Comment Schedule
Control when your automated comments are posted by configuring your timezone and preferred commenting hours.
- Timezone - Select your timezone to ensure comments are scheduled according to your local time. You can choose from:
- UTC Offsets - Simple offset-based selection (e.g., UTC+05:30 for India Standard Time, UTC-05:00 for Eastern Time)
- IANA Timezone Names - City/region-based selection for automatic daylight saving adjustments:
- Americas: America/New_York, America/Los_Angeles, America/Chicago, America/Denver
- Europe: Europe/London, Europe/Paris, Europe/Berlin, Europe/Amsterdam, Europe/Moscow
- Asia: Asia/Kolkata, Asia/Dubai, Asia/Singapore, Asia/Tokyo, Asia/Shanghai, Asia/Hong_Kong
- Pacific: Australia/Sydney, Australia/Melbourne, Pacific/Auckland
- Africa: Africa/Johannesburg, Africa/Cairo, Africa/Lagos, Africa/Nairobi
- Comment Time Window - Define the hours during which comments should be posted:
- Start Time - When to begin posting comments (e.g., 09:00)
- End Time - When to stop posting comments (e.g., 17:00)
- Enable/Disable - Toggle the time window on or off
How it works: When enabled, your daily comment quota (up to 100 comments) is distributed evenly across your configured time window. For example, with an 8-hour window (09:00-17:00), comments are spaced approximately every 4-5 minutes to appear natural and avoid rate limiting.
If no time window is configured, comments are distributed across a 24-hour period by default.
