  Scheduled tasks are not running. I don’t understand how to fix this. For example, Updraft Plus suggests I check if WP’s scheduler is disabled by checking my wp-config.php file. Where is this located?

  What is the URL of the site with the problem?

  Your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with GoDaddy.

  Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  https://wordpress.org/support/ is a great resource for sites using the open source WordPress.org software, and you can find support for that at: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  Your hosting provider’s support team may also be able to assist.

  Macmanx, Thank you for your response.

  What is the benefit of hosting with WordPress.com vs. Go Daddy, can my site be transferred to WordPress.com hosting, and if so what is the process?

  Thanks,

  Yes, if you’d like, you can move your site to us by following this guide: https://wordpress.com/support/moving-from-self-hosted-wordpress-to-wordpress-com/

  Please make sure that you look over the differences first though: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
