ABC Bits Cron Monitor
ABC Bits Cron Monitor
Description
ABC Bits Cron Monitor helps site administrators review recent WP-Cron activity. It records a timestamp whenever WordPress runs WP-Cron and displays a compact dashboard with recent runs, counts, and gap details.
The dashboard shows:
- The last recorded WP-Cron run.
- Run counts for the last 24 hours and 7 days.
- Average run gaps for the last 24 hours and 7 days.
- Whether automatic WP-Cron spawning appears enabled.
- A recent run log with gaps between runs.
The plugin does not change WP-Cron behavior, trigger scheduled tasks, call external services, or add settings. It records recent WP-Cron run times locally for visibility.
Installation
- Install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen.
- Activate the plugin.
- Go to ABC Bits Cron Monitor in the WordPress admin menu to view recent WP-Cron activity.

No. The plugin records WP-Cron runs, not the result of each scheduled task. It can show whether WP-Cron has been running recently, but it does not audit individual cron events or task errors.
It can provide useful context. If scheduled tasks appear to be missed, the recent run log and gap details can help show whether WP-Cron ran during that period. The plugin does not identify or fix the specific scheduled task that failed.
No. Run timestamps are stored locally in WordPress options.
The recent run log is stored in the WordPress options table as abc_cron_run_log.
