Repeating runs

  • It seems that every time I run a cron job using the “Run Now” option it runs it again at the scheduled time. I have two instances of the same code. On my dev instance I ran a job manually twice and it ran 3 times at the scheduled time. On the other instance I didn’t run it manually and it ran only once. Do you know why this is happening?

    When you click Run Now an additional instance of the event gets scheduled to run immediately. Once it’s run it’ll be deleted by WordPress. WP Crontrol doesn’t change the way that events get run so if it’s causing additional events to run then I don’t think it’s due to WP Crontrol.

    Can you do some more testing to confirm that’s definitely happening? I’ll test it myself too.
