How to schedule wordpress event everyday on a specific time

Jacob

I have scheduled an event that trigger on daily basis. It is basically a script that fetch data from the external resource and import it into the database. I have used the following codes for daily schedule.

if( !wp_next_scheduled( 'MY_SCHEDULE_EVENT' ) ) {
    wp_schedule_event( time(), 'daily', 'MY_SCHEDULE_EVENT' );
}

You can use strtotime() instead of time() to trigger the schedule event on a specific time. Let's say trigger the event at 11:30 PM daily.

if( ! wp_next_scheduled( 'MY_SCHEDULE_EVENT' ) ) {
    wp_schedule_event( strtotime('23:30:00'), 'daily', 'MY_SCHEDULE_EVENT' );
}
