WordPress cron depends on site traffic and can fail on low-traffic sites.
Blocked loopback requests also prevent tasks from running. Disabling WP-Cron and setting a real server cron job improves reliability. Logs help identify failing tasks.
Security plugins and firewalls can block cron requests silently. The mistake is assuming cron runs automatically like system cron.
The takeaway is to use real cron jobs for mission-critical tasks.
