I have created a cron job to run wp-cron.php for me but I am seeing in my FPM logs where it’s still running. From what I understand, is that with the cron job it wouldn’t be hitting FPM to create any logs.
Is there a way to trace this and figure out whats running the file?
If what you are seeing are hits to
/wp-cron.php
, there is nothing really that prevents a plugin or malicious bots from making a request to that file, with or withoutDISABLE_WP_CRON
set totrue
, but with it set toTRUE
the actual cron process should be killed.
