Hi.
I am trying to get the remote publishing to work through email and i am nearly there but have a slight problem.

The cron is setup as instructed with the url in it set as :

/bin/wget -O /dev/null "https://www.bluefrogtoys.co.uk/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron";

this works as long as i run the URL manually : https://www.bluefrogtoys.co.uk/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron

then it immediately finds the email in the inbox and publishes it to the blog, what am i doing wrong that i have to run that URL first ?

thanks
Hello Richard,

My best guess is the wget path you are using. As stated in the documentation here: http://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/how-tos/setting-up-cronjobs-in-cpanel : You will need to get the correct path to "wget" and replace the domain name above with your site's domain. Not every hosting has it in /bin/wget. You might want to consult your web hosting for the correct path.
