 * I’ve seen your documentation on custom cron and I already know how to do this
   but I’m not sure how to get the plugin to pick up the new cron?
 * I’m trying to get a specific feed source to work on a custom processing interval
   of every 3 days
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'cron_schedules', 'cron_add_weekly' );
   
       function cron_add_weekly( $schedules ) {
       $schedules['weekly'] = array(
       'interval' => 259200,
       'display' => __( 'Every 3 Days' )
       );
       return $schedules;
       }
       ```
   
 * I’m not seeing the new cron option in the list of intervals on the individual
   feeds nor in the settings, code is being added via functions.php

 * Hi Uriahs (@uriahs-victor),
 * Can you please send us a screenshot of your Feed Processing metabox in your individual
   Feed Source setting, after you add that filter?

 * Here’s what it shows: [https://pasteboard.co/GU5qGxR.png](https://pasteboard.co/GU5qGxR.png)
 * I see multiple same name schedules and I assume that’s from multiple plugins 
   creating their own cron schedule.

 * Hi Uriahs,
 * Can you please try changing the array index:
 * `$schedules['weekly']`
 * to something else, such as:
 * `$schedules['every_three_days']`
 * or else?
 * It could be that the `weekly` index is already taken and being overridden by 
   other schedules.
 * Let us know if this works for you.
