Hello lovelies,

I'm just doing some site health checks and I came across this message.


Sorry, the screenshot came out rather small. Here's the copied text:

A scheduled event has failed

The scheduled event, wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files, failed to run. Your site still works, but this may indicate that scheduling posts or automated updates may not work as intended.

I haven't a clue what it means, never mind what to do about it!

Is anyone able to point me in the right direction? I did try searching in the questions, though to no avail.

Thanks in advance.

Lesley

In WordPress there are automatic processes that run to maintain your data ... it appears there is a process to delete old export files which is trying to run on your site but is prevented by the settings. Report this to the Support Desk, I am sure they can resolve it for you. Help Centre ... Site Support ... and give them the text above so they can determine which module or function is required.

Thank you for your prompt reply Allan.

I'll do that, send in the report to Site Support.

Best wishes to you for a nice weekend.
