Emails are processed regardless of cronjob

    Hi,

    I noticed that emails are send automatically since probably version 4.0.6. (according to the changelog). Before I had a cronjob initiating the process of sending but suddenly a new post seems to be sending independ of the cronjob. Now it’s using the WordPress mechanism? It was a big surprise to me that this behaviour had been changed.

    Anyway, is there any way I can prevent this from happening and continue using the cronjob?

    Best regards,
    Peter.

    Hi,

    Yes..Email Subscribers are now also using WordPress Cron mechanism as well.

    It triggers every 15 minutes and if any emails are in queue, it starts sending.

    You can disable WordPress Cron add following code into your wp-config.php file

    define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true);

    Hope that helps.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. I already tried that. To be sure I tried it again today that setting doesn’t seem to be effective. WordPress is still sending the mail automatically. Why not make it an option in the settings? Wasn’t it like that before? Hopefully there is another solution.

    Regards,
    Peter.
