 * Hello.
    Sometimes i am getting this error: “the wp_cron job has not run in a 
   while and might be disabled.” I know there is a guide to fix this in the pdf 
   file and i have seen it. My question is, if this error is popping up once in 
   a while and it is not constantly there.. Should i be concerned? or can i just
   ignore it? Thanks!

 * Hi, you can ignore the error, and in fact I should make it less prominent.
 * The cron mechanism can only run when you or a visitor looks at your site, and
   if your site has low traffic this will happen often. There is nothing to worry
   about.
