 * If you run a job manually with “Do now” from the Tools->Crontrol screen in WP2.7,
   you’ll most likely get a “missing argument 1 for spawn_cron()” error. In order
   to fix this, edit the “run_cron” function in wp-crontrol.php file.
 * You need to add $local_time to the spawn_cron call.
 *     ```
       function run_cron($hookname, $sig) {
       // Add this:
       	$local_time = time();
       //
           	$crons = _get_cron_array();
               foreach( $crons as $time=>$cron ) {
                   if( isset( $cron[$hookname][$sig] ) ) {
                       $args = $cron[$hookname][$sig]['args'];
                       wp_schedule_single_event(time()-1, $hookname, $args);
       // Change this:
                       spawn_cron($local_time);
       //
                       return true;
                   }
               }
               return false;
       }
       ```
   
 * This will make this function call spawn_cron() correctly allow the plug-in to
   work again.
