Possible to modify PHP code to allow plugin to do its updates

    I disabled the default cron job in WP by setting DISABLE_WP_CRON to true. According to the code from my domain host, this was necessary in order to write a custom cron job that would look for a cron event in my functions.php file that sends a daily email from wp_admin to let me know that SMTP is working correctly.

    I wanted to do this because SMTP hasn’t been working correctly for several months, and I like the reassurance of getting an email that signals it’s working correctly. However, I also like your tool updating plugins in the background!

    How can I include code to enable it to work without the default WP cron job, or is there another way to get daily notifications if the only way to get your tool to work is by setting the DISABLE_WP_CRON back to false?

    I learned I didn’t need a custom cron and could use wp_cron, so I’ll close my issue.
