    I have been scheduling posts in wordpress on my adult site for over a year, they have always ‘posted’ on time.

    Last night i had a post that ‘missed schedule’ – im not sure why this would happen. I just updated to the latest version and rescheduled for 2mins later, it failed again.

    Do you know why this would be happening?

    It doesn’t use some type of trigger that depends on visitors or maybe crontab?

    I put in a ticket to my host for the same question. I was told to “run a chron”, but I have no idea what that is. Is it something I need to execute myself? How often?

    Can someone explain a “chron” and what I need to do to solve the problem?

    think they mean a cron job, and no, I haven’t a clue wtf that is either, my host usually does all that for me, leaving me clueless as usual.

    A cron is simply geek speak for a scheduled event. It can be set to run at scheduled intervals to perform a specified task.

    For WordPress’ standard post when scheduled, you do NOT need a cron. Like MarketKing said, it’s usually triggered by traffic, however even on my local server (ie: no traffic), posts still work. I think WP will quickly post most scheduled posts to catch up on traffic. I have to check that out.

    Usually not posting scheduled posts indicates that something interfered with the schedule, the clock is wrong or the posts aren’t scheduled like you think.

    Googling it or searching it on the WordPress.org forums should get you some answers.

    I remember having to do a yum update to tzinfo or something recently. The post should be created with an INSERT into db that has a timestamp, when blog is loaded then all it should need to do is search for posts <= current timestamp.

    Have you done anything new… like update or add plugins? If so, try disabling it and do your 2 min schedule test again.

    Charles, try to use the plugin named Scheduled Post Trigger and if it does not fix the problem, you should upload this plugin:

    github.com/sLaNGjI/wp-missed-schedule

    Have a nice day.
