# Run WordPress scheduled tasks

See the tasks WordPress has scheduled, when they run next, and run the due ones right away.

## Before you start

- A running WordPress site in Nuvlo.

## Step 1: Open Scheduled tasks

Open the site and click **Settings**. The **Scheduled tasks** card lists each task with **Next run** and **Repeats**. Click **Show all … tasks** to see the full list.

## Step 2: Run due tasks now

Click **Run due tasks now** to run every task that is due right now, for example after a plugin says its jobs are late.

## How tasks run

Nuvlo runs WordPress’s due tasks every five minutes, on the server, instead of on visitors’ page loads. That’s why `DISABLE_WP_CRON` is managed by Nuvlo in wp-config.php.

For your own commands on a schedule, see [Cron jobs](https://app.nuvlo.dev/docs/cron-jobs).
