Current Post not displaying

I’ve been using AQL for a while now without issue. However it seems, this morning, to not be able to find the latest post in a category.

On my home page, the current Featured Post is one from last week. The newest post shows fine in my archives, and direct links etc, but it’s like AQL can’t see it? No matter what options I try it won’t appear.

I’ve made changes to the query loop to test, and can alter order, category taxonomy, all work as expected. I’ve even duplicated the post, and deleted the old one.

This used to work flawlessly. Is it a cache issue? Has WordPress broken something in the last update??

I’m stuck.
