 * Hi,
    A draft post I had worked for several hours on vanished. I then noticed 
   that there were no draft posts at all – and I had had a few. On investigation
   I discovered that if i saved a draft post and then cleaned the database, the 
   draft post vanished. I have checked this twice. thanks Keith Rowley

 * Dear [@keithrowley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/keithrowley/),
    I’m sorry
   to know that you lost your draft. Indeed, when you schedule a cron job to run
   automatically, it will clean all elements in the first table. I will add an option
   so that users can customize what they want to clean in the cron job. Regards.
