TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners who want to automate recurring tasks and actions on their site. It solves the problem of unreliable, visitor-triggered WordPress cron by using the server's own Unix Crontab schedule instead.

  • Automate custom WordPress tasks
  • Scheduled via Unix Crontab
  • Replaces default WP-Cron trigger
  • Preserves existing WP scheduling functionality
  • Improves site speed
  • Supports multiple actions per job

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Cronjob Scheduler

That's the whole idea of the plugin, you setup your schedules and the tasks you want to run and the plugin will handle the rest!
Just create a new function in your theme files (or somewhere else you will remember) and create an action with the same name.
Sure, just go to the Cronjob Scheduler interface and hit the Run button against the task.
