Create recurring jobs for maintenance, scripts, backups, and site testing.

Last updated August 3, 2026

What Scheduler does

Scheduler creates recurring jobs for WordPress maintenance workflows. Jobs can run on a cadence, target an instance, execute selected actions, and record run history.

Job options

  • Choose cadence such as hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly when available.
  • Select the target instance.
  • Choose update, backup, script, email report, or built-in site testing options.
  • Enable or disable jobs without deleting their history.

Run history

Each scheduler run records status, timing, target, and output. Failed runs should be reviewed before relying on later automation.

Recommended use

  • Start with testing environments before scheduling production-like workflows.
  • Use email reports for recurring checks that need visibility.
  • Review job history regularly for failures or skipped runs.
