# WP Crontrol
[](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-crontrol/)
[](https://github.com/johnbillion/wp-crontrol/actions)
WP Crontrol enables you to take control of the scheduled cron events on your WordPress website or WooCommerce store. From the admin screens you can:
* View all scheduled cron events along with their arguments, schedule, callback functions, and when they are next due.
* Edit, delete, pause, resume, and immediately run cron events.
* Add new cron events.
* Bulk delete cron events.
* Add and remove custom cron schedules.
* Export and download cron event lists as a CSV file.
WP Crontrol is aware of timezones, will alert you to events that have no actions or that have missed their schedule, and will show you a helpful warning message if it detects any problems with your cron system.
## Usage
1. Go to the `Tools → Cron Events` menu to manage cron events.
2. Go to the `Settings → Cron Schedules` menu to manage cron schedules.
