Any other #littleFedinauts have any trouble with scheduled posts? This one was supposed to fire yesterday evening but didn't. Just rescheduled to later this morning to see if it'll fire after a reschedule.

@pluvialgeist I see a "failed" scheduled post, I guess it's this one. I've just tried to schedule a post in 5 minutes from now, let's see what will happen.

Replying to @pluvialgeist

@pluvialgeist found the issue! You scheduled it on 4th Sep, but the housekeeping thought it was an orphaned media file, so deleted it. When the job triggered, it couldn't find the media and the post failed. I'm fixing it now.

@stefano I'm guessing, then, that any attempts to reschedule this particular post will also fail, since the photo has been deleted. So if I want to try again, I should re-upload my photo and reschedule as if from scratch, yeah?

Replying to @pluvialgeist

@pluvialgeist yes, exactly. And it should be working now.

After 24 hours, the unreferenced media are removed. And scheduled posts weren't considered so...
