Hi Guys

I am trying to create the cronjob on my hosting provider

I have changed the /components/com_easysocial/cron.php to my site

Now looking at 1and1 guide as below it seems I need to write a php script and than schedule this to run, can you help with the line of php I need to put in the script please

Kind Regards

I have found the crontab -e but not sure of path to put in? will the below work if I have a line of script in the mycron.php?

* * * * * /usr/bin/php /mydomain.com/mycron.php

I think I have done it by the following and reading another members comments

Edit /components/com_easysocial/cron.php to my site

Edit crontab -e and added the below to last line
*/1 * * * * wget -O /dev/null 2>&1 "https://mydomain.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=1";

I will let you know if I receive the emails okay and will close the ticket

Thanks
Rob
