Run it on schedule

Add a job

1. Open Cron jobs

   Sidebar → Advanced → Cron jobs, or / then “cron”.

2. Pick when to run

   Choose a preset — every 5/15/30 minutes, hourly, daily 3 AM, weekly, monthly — or pick Custom to unlock the 5-field cron box (e.g. */10 * * * * = every 10 minutes).

3. Enter the command

   Any shell command, run inside your own container. WordPress example: wp cron event run --due-now --path=/usr/local/lsws/Example/html.

4. Click Add job

   It appears in the list below with its schedule, status and history.

Reading the job list

• The schedule chip shows the effective cron expression.
• enabled / paused badge — pause a job without deleting it (the Pause button toggles).
• Last run + exit code — ok means exit 0; anything else shows the code.
• Last output — expand it to see the last 4 KB your command printed. This is your debugging window.

The classic use: real WordPress cron

WordPress fires its scheduler on visitor page-loads, which is unreliable on quiet sites — posts publish late, backups skip. The fix: add the wp cron event run --due-now command above on the Every 5 minutes preset, then add define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true); to wp-config.php via the file manager. Scheduled posts now go out on the second.
