FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package wp-register-cron
Register Cron
Declare a plugin's scheduled jobs, and have them cleaned up properly when it is removed.
What it does
Scheduling in WordPress is two calls that must not disagree:
wp_next_scheduled() before wp_schedule_event(), on the right hook, with
the right arguments — and then the same arguments again at uninstall or the
job is left behind forever, firing for a plugin that is no longer there.
This is the declaration instead. You say what should run and how often; the scheduling, the duplicate check and the uninstall are handled.
Features
- Declare a job once, instead of guarding
wp_schedule_event()by hand - Add a schedule WordPress does not have, like every five minutes
- Pass arguments, so the same hook can run per site, feed or account
- Unschedule everything the plugin registered, in one call at uninstall
- Ask when a job runs next, to show in an admin screen
- Change a schedule and have the existing event rescheduled, not duplicated
Installation
Quick start
A schedule of your own, if hourly, twicedaily and daily are not enough:
And at uninstall, the part that usually gets forgotten:
What it does not do
WordPress cron runs on traffic, not on time — a quiet site runs a "daily" job
late, and a job that must be punctual needs a real system cron hitting
wp-cron.php. Nothing here changes that.
Requirements
- PHP 8.3 or later
- WordPress 7.1 or later
