Hey @aurelienb1,

As you can see in here and here, we do use scheduled tasks, so I am not sure why you are seeing this message.

Might it be because we have an empty cron function?

Hi,

Yes, i think because you have empty cron function.

I found this in another plagiarism plugin, see MDL-52702 https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-52702

/**
 * Workaround MDL-52702 before version 3.1.
 */
public function cron() {
    // Do nothing.
    // Workaround MDL-52702 before version 3.1.
    // Affected branches moodle 2.7 - 3.0.
}

Regards
