 * Hi, I’m having problems with the plugin because the cron isn’t working properly.
   The problem is that images are not created automatically when creating a new 
   post. It only works manually.
 * I want to clarify that I work with the Page Generator Pro plugin.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcron-doesnt-work-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello bichodeoro,
 * I sent you two emails (to the mail where you paid the plugin), did you see ?
   
   Please note that you are not alone to tell me that there are crons problems since
   few days, that’s why I ‘m working to solve these crons problems in priority.
 * Thank you very much.

 * Thanks. Problem solved.
 * I have to say also that for people that have the same problem. The problem is
   related to WordPress cron, it can take up to some hours to be activated for the
   very first time (sometimes 12hours).
    I know that it’s very problematic for some
   people, that’s why I’m working on a fix which will be included in the new V3.0
   plugin.
 * Regards.
