    Hello.

    After pulling my hair out because of stuck CRONS (for 1-2-3 minutes or so), the cause is your plugin i was using.

    The CRONS after executing for once, they stuck at “NOW” state for a while.

    Just FYI.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Speaking as someone who’s contributed to WordPress core’s cron subsystem code, the symptoms you’ve described mean something different to the conclusions you’ve drawn. On a list of due cron jobs (e.g. in WP-Crontrol), “now” actually means “this job has not yet been run”. It does not mean “has run and is in a ‘stuck’ status” (there is no such status concept in WP core’s cron subsystem).

    Hello.

    I’m not a developer just an experienced webmaster. So CRONs or some of them do not run at all if i get this right. Still a problem.

    Removing your plugin (that i was using for a year or so) solved all cron stuck problems.

    BUT to be honest, i tried other plugins similar than yours (after removing it) and experienced the very same problem.

    Now i’m using none of such plugins.

    If you search the internet and here, there are a few cases like that UNsolved.

    Anyways, many thanks.
