 * Guys,
    after I put define(‘DISABLE_WP_CRON’, true); in my wp-config.php and created
   a real cron job on my server, wp-super-cache stopped clearing its cache.
 * wget -q ‘[http://www.example.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron&#8217](http://www.example.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron&#8217);-
   O /dev/null
 * Was it an intended behaviour?
 * Thanks for your time.

 * Yes, the plugin uses the WP Cron system to do various things like clear the cache.

 * But I created the cron job
    that call /wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron but the plugin
   stopped clearing the cache nonetheless.

 * You should probably debug the wp-cron.php script to verify that it is working
   as this is not the way it should be done. It sounds like it’s broken on your 
   site now however.
