I made a few posts “featured” and was trying to use the Featured Post block in Visual Composer and only noticed 1 out of the 3 posts appear. Why or how have the become “scheduled”? There’s no option to make it public.
Please try testing for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third party plugins, and seeing if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.
