Feature suggestion: manual cron for autoposting

    Hi guys,

    Some users would like to keep wp-cron enabled for other plugins and site functionality, so could you please add a method of disabling the Nextscripts plugin cron functionality and letting us set up a wget or curl cron job just for the nextscripts autoposting plugin?

    This seems like a much better way than to disable wp-cron completely? Disabling wp-cron is also very difficult for multisite users, because we then need to create manual cron jobs for every site / domain.

    I am not sure what are you talking about. Where is this coming from?

    I think you are messing up “disabling wp-cron completely” with “disabling wp-cron execution by WordPress pseudo cronjob service”.

    What I mean is, can you add the option to set up a wget cron job for nextscripts directly without going through wp-cron at all?

    Why would we do that? Wp Cron is much better than anything we do by ourselves.

    Because I have a multisite install and define(‘DISABLE_WP_CRON’, ‘true’); means I need to create a separate wget call to wp-cron for every site in my install, which makes it very hard. Especially when people create new sites in my install all the time.

    There are plenty of different solutions for that.

    We use that ourselves:
