add_action and wp_schedule_single_event Doesn’t Work – Please Help

  • Hi All,

    I have some strange problem and don’t understand why this doesn’t work:

    wp_schedule_single_event(time()+15, 'test_event');
add_action('test_event', 'test_function');

function test_function(){

	echo 'IN test_function() FUNCTION';
}

//counter

$cnt=wp_next_scheduled('test_event') - time();
echo $cnt;

    This code should call test_function() after 15 sec.
    And print ‘IN test_function() FUNCTION’ on the screen.
    I’m refreshing screen and looking how counter goes from 15 to -10 but never see that it call function test_function()

    Can anybody help.

    Thanks!

    Actually what doesn’t work is wp_schedule_single_event.

    This code from reference doesn’t work

    function do_this_in_an_hour() {
// do something
}
add_action('my_new_event','do_this_in_an_hour');

// put this line inside a function,
// presumably in response to something the user does
// otherwise it will schedule a new event on every page visit

wp_schedule_single_event(time()+3600, 'my_new_event');

// time()+3600 = one hour from now.
