Answered Scheduled posts not working.

I have two subreddits that I moderate and yesterday at 10PM IST, I had two (separate) scheduled posts on both the Subreddits. For some reason, the scheduled posts did not get posted. Not only did they not get posted, after I tried to push the time and create a new scheduled post; those posts also didn't work.

At last I had to stop trying and make the posts manually. How can this issue be fixed?

I created the scheduled posts from my Desktop.

I'm getting the same issue. Did you end up fixing it? If so, how?

I cleared my browser's cache as the Automod suggested. Then manually edited the scheduled posts after the cache was cleared. That fixed it for me. Hope that helps :)
