 * Hi
 * When I go to add a cron event I cant see Event Type. I want to create a php cron
   event but I’m not even able to see that option
 * Has this feature been removed??
 * Many Thanks

 * Nope the feature is still there, I’ve just moved it to a single “Add New” screen
   instead of the two separate screens.
 * Has file editing been disabled on your site? This feature is only available to
   users who have the `edit_files` capability. This hasn’t changed since the previous
   version of the plugin though so it should work if it did previously.
 * Are there any JavaScript errors showing in your browser console?

 * I can edit files sorry I only installed the plugin last night so not sure if 
   previous versions worked. Here’s a list of errors when I click on add new cron
   event

 * Hi John
 * I have admin capability and edit files capability but still cant see the event
   type option. I can create an cron event but the event type is simply missing
 * It states Hook Name, Arguments (Optional), Next Run, Recurrance.
