alexqac Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Hi, I need to use 2 cron jobs running one every hour and another one every 30 minutes to send out emails for membership expiry for my automobile club. I was told to contact support since I can't do more than one job per 12 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 There is likely no reason the 30 minute one is even needed. Assuming the memberships expire based on date, once per day should be more than enough to send these. Be mindful of the 50 email per day limit as well. Too many emails can get you suspended. As for the once an hour job, what is the url to the script? We usually can create an external cron that calls it every hour for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexqac Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 These are my required CRON jobs. */15 * * * * php /home1/alexqac/public_html/admin/cp-cron/emailing.php 0 */2 * * * php /home1/alexqac/public_html/admin/cp-cron/index.php I currently created them for every 12h5mins but would prefer the index to be at around 1 or 2 hours and the mailing at 6 hrs or keep it at 12h5min if I have to. I'm using Zenbership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Krydos should be able to schedule those for you externally since they're inside of public_html. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexqac Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 I've decided to not run Zenbership as I had problems creating "admins". I'm instead using Clubmaster. To not overload your servers, could you remove both of these crons that you created? Thank you for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydos Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Haha, sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
