Comment (by prb22public@…):

 Replying to [comment:4 SergeyBiryukov]:

 The dev site I have setup specifically to diagnose the issue does not get
 visits from anyone apart from myself during the tests to get the scheduler
 to work.

 I appreciate there is a need for a "visit" to kick off cron entries, but
 this does not appear to occur and posts stay in "missed schedule" status,
 implying one of two things:
 1. wp-cron is not being triggered on webpage visit.
 2. wp-cron is perhaps being triggered (how do I check this?) but is not
 picking up past entries/hooks that have missed the schedule date/time.

 This does appear to be prevalent in 3.* versions of WP and perhaps
 increasing dependancy on the mechanism is causing a lot of concern in
 communities where debug documentation is poor. I'd really like somebody to
 deep dive into my dev site where they can see first hand the problem if
 they are unable to replicate elsewhere.
