I read document ab WP cron and it say something like it require user perform some action, for example access homepage, browse some item etc. If no user enter site then cron job not run.
But there are many other information that confuse me. I just want to know does it run as scheduled as Native Linux cron or Windows Scheduler ?
Here are test script.
The basic idea is that let log timestamp of cronjob run to verify it run and in expected schedule.
Add these function to one of the cronjob (often placed in functions.php or lib folder in wp-content/themes/your-theme/...
add_filter( 'cron_schedules', 'add_every_min' );
function add_every_min( $schedules ) {
$schedules['every_min'] = array(
'interval' => 60,
'display' => __( 'Every Min', 'textdomain' )
);
return $schedules;
}
// Schedule an action if it's not already scheduled
if ( ! wp_next_scheduled( 'add_every_min' ) ) {
wp_schedule_event( time(), 'every_min', 'add_every_min' );
}
// Hook into that action that'll fire every three minutes
//add_action( 'add_every_min', 'test_wp_cron_1min' );
function test_wp_cron_1min() {
$test = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
my_log($test);
return true;
}
function my_log($data) {
$log = WP_CONTENT_DIR . "/log2.txt";
$ln = "\r\n";
file_put_contents($log, json_encode($data).$ln, FILE_APPEND);
}
You should create a log file in wp-content/log2.txt and allow read+write permission to it.
To test, just run tail -f wp-content/log2.txt to watch log append.
When access, browse home page it run. If no action occurred => it not run so no log output.
Some useful WP CLI command:
List all cron event:
wp cron event list
wp cron schedule list # show schedule list (1 day, 1 hour, weekly ...)
wp cron event run test_1_min # execute cron job now (not have to wait)
wp cron event run --all # run all cron now
wp cron event run --due-now # I don't know what it mean/run
