    Hello,

    If I disable WP Cron with

    define(‘DISABLE_WP_CRON’, true);

    and then create a true cron job in CPanel…

    Does WP Crontrol still have a purpose and use? or should I just deactivate it?

    If you still need to manage the cron events in WordPress (adding, editing, deleting, etc), then yes it still has a purpose. DISABLE_WP_CRON just prevents WordPress from running the events.

    Thanks for confirming John.

    I thought perhaps it was defunct if WP Cron was turned off.

    Good to know. I’ll keep it for monitoring any events for now.
