This plugin utilizes the wp_cron API. All you do is install the plugin, schedule your Scripts / Functions / PHP code to run at a specific interval, and live your life! == Frequently Asked Questions == **What does wp_cron() do?** As you receive visitors on your site, WordPress checks your database to see if anything is scheduled to run. If you have a wp_cron() function scheduled ever 12 hours, then the very first visitor 12+ hours from the last scheduled run of that function will trigger the function to run in the background. The Cronjob (or Cron Job) sends a request to run cron through HTTP request that doesn't halt page loading for the visitor. **How is wp_cron() different from Server configured Cronjobs?** Cronjobs configured on a server run on their intervals automatically, while wp_cron() runs only after being triggered from a visitor to your site. == Changelog == = 0.1 = * First official release to the public as a plugin == Upgrade Notice == = 0.1 = You aren't using the real plugin, upgrade and you enjoy what you originally downloaded this for! == Installation == 1.
