I tried to set up a cron job for the blog on this site. I've set up cron jobs previusly, but never with a command line like the one formed in EB.The help text says: You only need to insert the secure key on the textbox above and use the cron URL below in order for the cronjob to work.

The URL is https://norcalpulse.com/redding/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron&phrase=norcalBL0Gpost - this isn't a cron job command line. Where/how do I use this?
Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a public holiday for us here.

May i know do you have Cpanel which allow you to configure cronjob (task scheduler) from your server?

For example : https://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/administrators/cronjobs/cronjobs-cpanel

If you have and your server did support wget, you can try add this following cron command :
[gist type="php"]
/usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null "https://norcalpulse.com/redding/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron&phrase=norcalBL0Gpost";
[/gist]

By the way, if you need help with this, you can provide us with your Cpanel access so we can assist you on this.
