Notes: The wp_cron job will take over the calculation of the results if 5 seconds is not long enough at the time of form submission/update.
The default schedule is set to hourly to avoid heavy loads on the server but the frequency can be changed by using the gform_polls_cron_schedule filter.
The format follows the same format required by the WordPress cron_schedules filter
Important: the Polls Add-On must be deactivated and reactivated in order to reschedule the task.
Example usage:
add_filter( 'gform_polls_cron_schedule', 'cron_add_twice_hourly' );
function cron_add_twice_hourly() {
// Adds once weekly to the existing schedules.
$schedule['twicehourly'] = array(
'interval' => 1800, // number of seconds in the interval
'display' => __( 'Twice Hourly' )
);
return $schedule;
