How to repeat your post?
It is even simpler than installing your plugin. Choose the post you need to repeat every yera and add custom field REPEATON=MM/DD, save the post and you are done!!!. For example, if you need to repeat the post on 24th April, set the custom field REPEATON=04/24. Dont forget that you must have to put two digits for date and month number.

Known Issue
If your yearly post is very latest and comes on the front page of your blog, it will be repeated. (This post will be shown as a repeating post and as a regular post)

FAQ's

1) I activated plugin but cannot see repeating post.
Check your wordpress version. It must be WP 2.1 or > or WPMU 1.1 or >. Check the custom field name and make sure that you spelled it correct. Check the custom field value is set to proper format MM/DD (with leading zero)

2) I would like to activate Sticky Post plugin as well
Dont do that mistake. It is going to throw mysql error.

3) I got wierd mysql error
This plugin changes query for showing posts. It is possible that you have another plugin which also modifies the query and hence the resultant query is a junk query which MySQL is not recognizing. so now you have to deactivate any one of the plugin.

Change Log
