   I'm having trouble getting an event schedule in WordPress. I've followed the documentatation, but when I check the event using wp_next_scheduled it echo's the time the event should have fired the first time.

   Here's my code:
   

   $scheduledtime = wp_next_scheduled('dm_update_hook');
               $formatscheduledtime = date("F j, Y, g:i a", $scheduledtime);
   
               echo "<p>Next Update: " . $formatscheduledtime . "</p>";
               echo "<p>Current Time: " . date("F j, Y, g:i a") . "</p>";
   
               if (!wp_next_scheduled('dm_update_hook')) {
                   wp_schedule_event(time(), 'hourly', 'dm_update_hook' );
                   echo "Event Scheduled";
               }
   
               add_action( 'dm_update_hook', 'dm_update_function' ); 
   
               function dm_update_function() {
                   wp_mail('test@test.com', 'Test', 'This is a test.');
                   wp_mail('test2@test2.com', 'Testing', 'Test 2.');
               }

   Output:

   Next Update: May 17, 2011, 9:02 pm
   Current Time: May 17, 2011, 10:19 pm

   Notice how the Next Update is previous to the current time. The emails are never sent, even on first run. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!
