   I can't get wordpress' cronjob work:

   Here what I have done:
   

   <?php
   
   function hlex_install() {
   	wp_schedule_event(time(), 'hourly', 'hlex_timing_job');
   }
   
   function hlex_cronjob() {
       die('cronjob');
   }
   
   function hlex_deactivation() {
   	wp_clear_scheduled_hook('hlex_timing_job');
   }
   
   register_activation_hook(__FILE__, 'hlex_install');
   
   register_deactivation_hook(__FILE__, 'hlex_deactivation');
   
   add_action('hlex_timing_job', 'hlex_cronjob');
   ?>

   The wp_schedule_event works cause I can see in the table wp_options (option_name='cron' ) something like: i:1270343829;a:1:{s:15:"hlex_timing_job";

   wp_clear_scheduled_hook works too because if I deactivate the plugin "hlex_timing_job" has gone from the "cron" row of the wp_options table.

   The problem is that hlex_cronjob() is never executed or at least I've never seen the word 'cronjob' printed.

   I hope someone can help me.

   Thanks

   I wasn't sure if the cron function will be called directly or by CURL so I changed the hlex_cronjob() to see if it's called:

   function hlex_cronjob() {
   	update_option('hlex_test', now());
   }

   Now i'm sure that is not called because I can see in wp_options that the row hlex_test is not updated.

   So i still can't find a solutions :/

   I recommend you to install "GD Press Tools" plugin where you can see if your event has been correctly scheduled.
