Get in touch if you’ve replaced WordPress’s wp-cron system with a proper cron system, especially if you’ve hacked core to do so. I wanna know what you did to make writing plugins easier.

    You can just disable wp cron and hit the page directly to trigger the cron properly from a real cron. Works like a charm.

    Though I suspect you already knew that. :/ if you find something easier, I’d love to hear it too.

    I just finished doing that with filters and actions. Wrote my own mediator and then created a wp implementation.

    I feel like WP wants us to make our own abstract components and then build wp support so that wp can have its LTS vibe and we get new functionality, decoupled from WP.

    perfect, thanks, that’s full of the kind of hacks I’m looking for :) Need to see how their needs differ from Cavalcade.

    Kinda makes me want to write a scheduler module. The pass the cron engine as a dependency. Be it wp cron, actual cron, or something else.
