I am using your plugin and would like to customize the execution of the Cron Job to optimize the backup process. Currently, the available scheduling options start from 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month, but I need to perform backups of the database and some specific files every 1 to 5 minutes.

Is there a way to modify the cron schedule so that it runs at a shorter interval than the default 24 hours? If there is any specific configuration or command I can use, could you guide me?

I appreciate your support in advance!

Best regards.

I’ve also had issues with all my scheduled posts missing their scheduled date, so I’ve had to get a plugin installed that posted them when the next viewer came to the site.

I’ve attached images of what I see.

Sorry for any stupid things I might say, I recently moved from wordpress.com to a custom host, but decided to stick with wordpress, and am really new to all of this web hosting stuff.

I searched the FAQ, Knowledge Base and other questions and didn’t find anything about Cron Jobs.

I found it interesting to open this topic to discuss best practices.

Does your plugin have any wp-cron dependency?

On sites that I need maximum performance I usually disable wp-cron, but I configure a real Cron by the server, what is the correct value to configure? And what are the best practices to combine performance and functioning?

cd /your/path/to/website; php -q wp-cron.php

The path I have is:

/usr/local/bin/php /home/domainin/public_html/

making the code:

cd /usr/local/bin/php /home/domainin/public_html/; php -q wp-cron.php >/dev/null 2>&1

but it’s still not working.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

I got the solution to this by doing
define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true);
and my backup was successful
but after 1 day, it started appending
www.mydomain.com/?doingcron=8387539920/ something to my url

i removed the line define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true);
and now again i can’t take backup.
what to do? kindly help!

We have the Pro version of the plugin but we encounter the following problem;

I created an import task via WP All Import and we import the role based prices via a xml feed. When I start the import manually everything works fine. But when I schedule the import via the crons the role based prices won’t show and I noticed that they are disabled for all products after the import is finished.

I tried lots of different options, also lots of different values for ‘Enable Role Based Price’ but nothing works.

I hope someone knows the solution for this. I use standard CURL crons by the way.

Best regards,

Bart

Backups are still working eventually as far as I can tell.
