This plugin deleted 3800 duplicate posts that I accidentally created due to a bug in my script!

The plugin is very good, credit to the author. However, the auto delete feature (cron) simply doesnt work. I've tried everything, deactivating the plugin, deleting, reinstalling.. changing the time intervals for running the automatic feature.. but the plugin isnt deleting any duplicated posts.
