"There may be a problem with WP-Cron."

Auto-updates do not seem to be working. Also, my local installation does not automatically update to the latest version of wordpress. I have enabled auto-updates on my active plugins and I can manually update wordpress and plugins. Just auto-updates isn’t working.
Here is the mssage I see next to each overdue plugin.
“Automatic update overdue by 5 months. There may be a problem with WP-Cron.”

How do I troubleshoot this problem?

Hi @bobby

WP Cron only runs on a schedule when some ‘thing’ visits your site, either to the front end or the WordPress admin. I say some ‘thing’ because to WordPress, it doesn’t matter if it’s a user, a visitor, or a bot – it just has to visit your site in a way that will keep the WP Cron running on time.

This is fine for high-traffic websites (in fact it can also be a problem) but for sites that don’t get visited that often, or sites that are behind a login or used on an internal network, it can mean that the WP Cron doesn’t run correctly. (Source)

Unlike a live, hosted website that’s permanently connected your Local site is only “live” or able to connect to the API when your Local app is opened up and your site is Started. So that’s part of the equation, the other part is that your site would likely need a Cron “trigger” set up to push that Cron Job into action.

When your site is live and hosted you won’t have to worry about this because natural traffic can kick off the cron jobs or you can set them up to run automatically at certain intervals. Because Local is meant to be for short-term offline development and not a permanent self-hosted site option generally speaking this shouldn’t be of too much concern.

Hi Nick,
Thank you! for taking the time to write an informative response!
Yes, my hosted site updates normally and frequently.
So, on my local site, the solution is just to manually update from time to time as I have been doing.
This is no big deal.

It seems so unusual these days to get an answer that actually addresses the actual question!!!
I really appreciate it.
Thanks, again!!!
