Since you're first that's reported this out of the thousands of users, there's something odd going on here. Can you double check the cron setting at your admin/settings/site-information page and save? If you can share a link to your site that would be great as well as I can check that the proper JavaScript is being inserted and not causing errors.

yes, did that already.
switched that setting back-and-forth to make sure it was saved.

honestly - no idea what to do.
the only thing i can confirm is that it WORKED several versions ago, but i don't know what exact version of PMC started to not work.

the site is http://daihinia.labordei.com

That definitely helps. I think you have something going wrong with your JavaScript processing or aggregation as it's not actually including any of the usual Drupal module scripts (like misc/jquery.js, misc/drupal.js, sites/all/modules/poormanscron/poormanscron.js):

<head>
  ...
  <script type="text/javascript"> </script>
</head>

Also note in your 'Advertisement' block you have invalid HTML (table missing closure):

<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"<br />

thanks for pointing these out.
the scripts were missing due to a bug in the theme, fixed now.

I'm having the same problem as other recent users. Under the Administer/Site Building/Modules page, the PMC checkbox is checked, but it doesn't appear under the Administer/By Module page. I've deleted the file and downloaded/unzipped it again, but still it doesn't show up. Any other ideas as to how I can fix this? The PMC javascript file and module appear in the unzipped folder...

@Comrade: Read the included README.txt or the project's release notes (http://drupal.org/node/644328). The cron setting is now at admin/settings/site-information instead of it's own page.

Hi

I'm having a similar issue after upgrading to the latest version.

The site link is http://www.mycommonhold.co.uk/content/

It worked fine with the last version.... not sure about theming and javascript, so would appreciate your help in working out what is causing it.

thanks
