wp_unschedule_event( int $timestamp, string $hook, array $args = array() )
Unschedule a previously scheduled event.
Contents
Description Description
The $timestamp and $hook parameters are required so that the event can be identified.
Parameters Parameters
- $timestamp
-
(int) (Required) Unix timestamp (UTC) of the event.
- $hook
-
(string) (Required) Action hook of the event.
- $args
-
(array) (Optional) Array containing each separate argument to pass to the hook's callback function. Although not passed to a callback, these arguments are used to uniquely identify the event, so they should be the same as those used when originally scheduling the event.
Default value: array()
Return Return
(bool) True if event successfully unscheduled. False for failure.
More Information More Information
Note that you need to know the exact time of the next occurrence when scheduled hook was set to run, and the function arguments it was supposed to have, in order to unschedule it. All future occurrences are unscheduled by calling this function.

/**
* Filter to preflight or hijack unscheduling of events.
*
* Returning a non-null value will short-circuit the normal unscheduling
* process, causing the function to return the filtered value instead.
*
* For plugins replacing wp-cron, return true if the event was successfully
* unscheduled, false if not.
*
* @since 5.1.0
*
* @param null|bool $pre Value to return instead. Default null to continue unscheduling the event.
* @param int $timestamp Timestamp for when to run the event.
* @param string $hook Action hook, the execution of which will be unscheduled.
* @param array $args Arguments to pass to the hook's callback function.
