I’m a developer & My Post type has thumbnail support but the column not showing up!!

Please make sure your post type is registered with init or any earlier hook with normal or higher (before 10) priority.
If the priority is too low (Eg. 9999) this plugin might not able to detect it.
You can also use the following 2 filters to add support for your post-type absp_post_type_supports_thumbnail && absp_current_post_type_supports_thumbnail.
It’s require that you use both of these to make your post-type get recognized by the plugin.

E.g.
add_filter( ‘absp_post_type_supports_thumbnail’, ‘add_your_post_type_thumbnail_column_support’, 10, 2 );
add_filter( ‘absp_current_post_type_supports_thumbnail’, ‘add_your_post_type_thumbnail_column_support’, 10, 2 );

function add_your_post_type_thumbnail_column_support( $supports, $post_type ) {
    if ( 'your-post-type' === $post_type ) {
        return true;
    }

    return $supports;
}
