Cron schedules are used by WordPress and WordPress plugins to allow you to schedule commands to be executed at regular intervals. Intervals must be provided by the WordPress core or a plugin in order to be used. WP-Crontrol lets you take control over what’s happening in the WP-Cron system.

An example of a plugin that uses these schedules is WordPress Database Backup. Out of the box, only daily and hourly backups are supported. In order to do a weekly backup, a weekly cron schedule must be entered into WP-Crontrol first and then the backup plugin can take advantage of it as an interval.

Here’s something way more interesting than WP-Crontrol: WP Core Control, gives you the ability to control everything: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/core-control/

I am glad you mentioned this, it is important to keep on top of backups, and I admit it is something we all neglet to do.

A cron Job would automate this and make life a lot easier.

Thanks for a great post.
