 * (@onirgoc)
 * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cron-control/)
 * Hello,
 * I absolutly need CRON work fine and applying that code to root .htaccess gives
   error. I already try to follow instruction here but with no success [](http://forum.ait-pro.com/forums/topic/blocking-of-my-own-ipv6-server-address/)
 * I can see I steel have WGET in my code in http_user_agent…is it the problem ?
 * I also try to use ALTERNATE_WP_CRON but doesn’t work well.
 * Hope someone can help (thanks):
    Here it is my code…he was working fine until
   I need CRON to work:
