Custom Cron Jobs Being Automatically Removed in WP Control Plugin

    Hi Support Team,

    We are using the WP Control plugin to manage custom Cron jobs on our website. However, over the past few months, we’ve noticed that some of our custom Crons are being automatically removed from the back-end without any action on our part. As a result, we’ve had to manually re-add these cron jobs 2-3 times now.

    Could you please provide guidance on why this might be happening and how we can resolve this issue to prevent the cron jobs from being removed automatically?

    Thank you for your assistance.

    Thanks for the reports. This has been reported a few times in recent months, it looks like there might be a race condition in the WordPress core software which causes a cron event to fail to get rescheduled after the event runs. There is some discussion on the WordPress core issue tracker here but no resolution as of yet.

    Normally this isn’t a problem because the event will get rescheduled by the plugin that added the cron event in the first place, but for events added through the interface in WP Crontrol the event may disappear in this situation.

    I am going to look into implementing an internal “monitoring” system in WP Crontrol to see if this can be mitigated.

    Me too. Had this about 3 times over last year. Love the plugin though!
