Feb 26, 2013 at 11:37 comment added Frank You such a rock star then. Am installing plugin and checking.
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:36 comment added fischi Install a Cron-Overview Plugin where you can see all your Crons. Set the scheduled time to 1 minute, just to see if everything works, and you should see the cron in your Overview list. Can you confirm that?
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:35 comment added Frank But am hitting website each & everysecond.
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:32 comment added fischi As mentioned, wp_cron just executes IF the page is loaded. So if you set the interval to 1 second, and nothing happens on your site for 1 hour, wp_cron does not autmatically load itself. It is part of the WordPress script, and checks if it has to be executed whenever WordPress is loaded.
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:28 comment added Frank Do you know the reason? Why?
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:26 comment added fischi Yeah, that's what i expected - because on your localhost it will not often happen that you load your page every second ;)
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:24 comment added Frank I have already second option, set corn job on server. I tried above custom recurrence everysecond but its not working though on local-host.
Feb 26, 2013 at 11:05 comment added fischi Yep, that's exactly what that means :) If you really depend on a Script being executed every second (I can't think of a case where this is necessary when nobody visits the site) you should go for a real Cronjob instead of wp_cron.
Feb 26, 2013 at 10:44 comment added Frank Thanks for great knowledge. Thatz means i needs to hit site in every second to run scheduled cron. wp_schedule_event( time(), 'everysecond', 'my_hourly_event');
