 * I deactivated BackWPUp and it resolved the issue… Seriously – even without knowing
   your plugin in detail, the stack trace pretty obviously seems to indicate that
   BackWPUp has a problem handling some saved config information (probably from 
   earlier versions).
 * And no, I did not even start to disable 20+ other plugins.

 * In that case I need to individually look at your case. Can you please – while
   you still have the manual post with the shortcode on your site – use the “Download
   diagnostic information” button on the plugin’s config page and send me the resulting
   file to [stefan@28a.de](https://wordpress.org/support/users/osti47/replies/stefan@28a.de?output_format=md).
   Additionally a screenshot from Wodify’s WOD editor might also help.

 * Hi, I checked the thing about featured images again: From my observation it works
   as expected: If you select to NOT use images but select “yes” for featured images,
   the image is not shown in the post created itself. Depending on your theme, the
   featured image will be shown on post overview pages like the start page or post
   archives. Maybe there are also themes that explicitly show the image on a single
   post page, too. If you want to show the image in the post, you must set “Images”
   to yes.

    1. It’s been quite some time since I implemented this and I have not re-tested,
       but yes this setup should work
    2. More or less right. The WordPress Cron only triggers when someone visits your
       website. For a test scenario you could just reload the website after 15 minutes.
       In your “production” site you can either “hope” that your website will be loaded
       regularly by users or search engines or setup an external Cron-job or similar
       service that regularly loads https:/your-site-name.com/wp/wp-cron.php
       Also the
       post is only created, if the last changed date and time of the WOD in Wodify
       is older than 1 hour, to avoid grabbing the workout before its finished – see
       next point.
    3. The created posts are static when they have been posted. If you make a change
       later, you could manually delete an existing post (make sure to also remove 
       it from trash). It will then recreate the next time the job is running (with
       the limitation mentioned at point 2).
       I might be thinking of creating the post
       using a short code in the future – this would allow the post to update, however
       would also confuse search engines, social media and so on because the update
       would be “silent”.

 * First of all: I am not affiliated with Wodify, so I can’t and won’t say much 
   about their built-in integration features, which you mention as the second option.
   I understand that this posting (if it is still available offers only very limited
   configuration options. It works entirely independent of my plugin.
 * If you use this plugin you have several options to get WODs to you WordPress 
   page:
    - Using the Short code or WOD block in any post or also a page. As you can use
      relative dates (today, “+1”, “MON”, etc.) you can use a static page that will
      change each day (if you don’t misconfigure a cache plugin)
    - If you want a daily (or whatever) automatic post, please check the settings
      in the lower part of the plugin’s WOD settings. This will allow you to configure
      automatic post creation from with your WordPress site.
 * Both cases allow some configuration when the WOD is actually shown and published–
   depending on your Wodify settings with some options of modifications (e.g. you
   can chose to ignore publishing limitations entirely or have your publish times
   relative to Wodify – maybe a few hours earlier or later)
 * The way most plugin users set it up is what you describe as set it up and forget
   it approach – many have a page that shows “todays” or “tomorrows” WOD using shortcodes
   or blocks in a page. I think the option of automatically have a new post for 
   each WOD is used less frequently.
 * Regarding the posting of the image let me check and get back to you later. Might
   be an issue with the plugin.

   tonight and probably upload an update of the plugin. Sorry for the inconvenience.

 * No concerns. I had the same issue with my own test/dev environment and it took
   me a moment to figure out. I have added the following lines to my .htaccess file(
   after the part for the password):
 * <FilesMatch “wp-cron.php$”>
    AuthType None Require all granted </FilesMatch>

 * Hi,
 * a quick test with my own site does not show any obvious problems…
 * So as a first step one or two guesses:
    – I assume that you have not changed 
   any settings and it stopped working? Because there is an option for each line
   where it would be possible to deactive posting (column “Create post”) – I cannot
   see the repsective setting from your screenshot. – the page URL you provided 
   has a .htaccess password protection. This can also stop WOD posting from working
   because it will interfere with the WordPress cron mechanism.
 * If this does not help you and you would hand over site access, this would probably
   be the most effective way to debug. In that case please e-mail access info to
   [stefan@28a.de](https://wordpress.org/support/users/osti47/replies/stefan@28a.de?output_format=md)
 * Best regards
    Stefan

 * What PHP version is used on your server? The plugin requires at least PHP 5.5
   to work. This error sounds like there is a version less than 5.3 installed.
