 * Hi, I’m currently using Postie in two websites and I’m having problems with some
   stuff:
 * First, the schedule system does not work, I only got able to make it work by 
   manually making a cron job that triggers the check of the emails in the system,
   no other way I found it to work, i’m currently using Site Ground for hosting.
 * Second, when Postie reads the emails to make posts, it randomly misses every 
   now on them certain posts and I need to manually unread the email and put it 
   on inbox to make postie check the email again to make it go to WordPress, I’m
   using Gmail.
 * Other bug is that sometimes apart from missing some emails for some reason it
   also randomly make certain featured images on post go blank even through they
   are attached in the email, and I need to manually reload the email in order to
   make it go to WordPress with the featured image working.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmultiple-bugs-with-postie%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * >First, the schedule system does not work
 * Postie works fine with the WordPress cron system. It is likely that another plugin
   or your theme has done something incompatible with WordPress cron. You can verify
   this by disabling all other plugins and switching your theme to something generic.
   For more information about Postie and WP cron see [http://postieplugin.com/faq/doesnt-postie-automatically-publish-emails-running-manually-works/](http://postieplugin.com/faq/doesnt-postie-automatically-publish-emails-running-manually-works/)
 * >Postie reads the emails to make posts, it randomly misses every now on them
 * There are a couple of environmental issues that could cause this. Installing 
   the Support AddOn could assist in tracking down the issue. See [http://postieplugin.com/downloads/support-addon/](http://postieplugin.com/downloads/support-addon/)
 * >it also randomly make certain featured images on post go blank
 * It isn’t clear to me from your question if the post has a featured image, but
   it is the wrong one (i.e. blank image) or if there is no featured image.
 * Depending on where your emails come from there could be several images that aren’t
   necessarily visible to you, but Postie sees them and sets it as the featured 
   image.
