Delayed Publishing

I am having similar issues as others when attempting to write a post to be published at a later time.

After writing the post I select when I want it to publish in the edit timestamp section. Two things happen.

If I press publish not only does the post never get published, but it is also nowhere to be found in posts or drafts.

I wondered if anyone knew what I may be doing wrong and/or how I can fix this problem so I can continue working on delayed publish posts without them disappearing.

Thank you for your time!
