That's twice now that my bot's programming has been deleted without me knowing why.
So I've recreated it twice now. It's a daily bot, which posts the same topic every day, only the title date changes.
Could you tell me what's causing my problem?
Thanks in advance.

Is there anything in the logs around the time it was successfully posted the last time? It works by executing the task and then scheduling it again. Or did other jobs disappear as well?

I'm sorry I can't tell you. I'm a mere user.

Are you using the instance hosted by me at https://schedule.lemmings.world/ or a self-hosted instance?

I'm doing a major rewrite that should (among others) fix this issue, though it's gonna take me a few more days.

It should be fixed now, can you try? Also note that I accidentally deleted all previously set schedules, so if you had something recurring set up there, it's gone.

I've prepared an initial post plan with an external image. When I checked, I saw that the image was not taken into account. So I deleted it and redid it with an image to be uploaded by my instance. Now it sees the image.

Hello @rikudou@lemmings.world,

Could you please have a look at the above comment? In summary, the recurring posts don't work with an external picture. This picture is to be used with a daily post, we would like to avoid reuploading that picture on the instance every day.
