Reminders arrive late

Reminders are sent by WordPress's WP-Cron, which runs only when someone opens the website. If the website has few visits, the reminders are late. The fix is a real Cron job on the hosting.

Where: Your hostingCron

Steps

  1. In the hosting, usually in cPanel › Cron Jobs, add a job that opens https://yourdomain.com/wp-cron.php every 5 to 15 minutes.
  2. Ask the person who looks after the website to add define( 'DISABLE_WP_CRON', true ); to wp-config.php.
  3. Check after a day whether the reminders go out on time.
Good to knowIf you are not sure how to do it, write to your hosting: it is a standard setting and they usually do it for free. Every 15 minutes Cron also sends the thank-you emails and the missing N-18 documents.
