    Hello,

    I love your plugin and it works flawlessly.
    But now I started using RSS to post plugin and post gets pushed to Twitter without featured image. I guess RSS to post creates a post so fast, WP to Twitter doesn’t have enough time tom recognize the featured image.

    Is there a way to delay posting to Twitter by, say, 5 minutes?

    Using WP Tweets Pro, you can delay posting; but that may not solve your issue, as the Tweet is generated at publication.

    The problem here is most likely that the RSS to post plugin publishes the post before attaching the featured image – this is a common flaw in importing plug-ins. They frequently complete the publishing actions, then they process meta data and add images. But because WP to Twitter is fired by the publishing action, at the time that WP to Twitter is triggered, your post does not yet have a featured image.

    I sorted it out with RSS to post plugin’s option “delay until everything’s set up”.
    So thank you very much 🙂
