Do you have a list somewhere of the cronjobs we should set up. I have just installed EasySocial and EasyDiscuss on a site that previously had EasyBlog. I asked my host to put in a cronjob for EasySocial email pickup that was running on my other site with ES, ED and EB.

Are there other cronjobs I should also be adding?

Are there changes I should make to this one?

*/2 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "https://www.drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=true";

Thank you, Sean Carney
Hi there,

I am a bit lost here actually. I don't really get what you asked for above. Did you meant that we have guideline on how to set-up cronjob? If yes, we got those guideline at Our Documentations

If not, can you help us get the better picture of what you have asked?

I was not hoping for a guideline but for any crons that are required or suggested to work with EasyBlog, EasyDiscuss or EasySocial.

For example the cron that I just had added was needed in order for the mails to go out in EasySocial.

Thanks, Sean

Hello Sean,

All cronjob guidelines are already laid out in our documentation Unfortunately we cannot standardize the documentation because not every customers are subscribed to all different products. You can find these docs below:

EasyBlog - https://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/administrators/cronjobs
EasySocial - https://stackideas.com/docs/easysocial/administrators/cronjobs
Komento - https://stackideas.com/docs/komento/administrators/cronjobs
EasyDiscuss - https://stackideas.com/docs/easydiscuss/administrators/cronjobs

Thank you for those four sections. I now believe that I need to have my host set up four cronjobs. I had previously only asked them to set up one. And, I had them copy an older cronjob from another EasySocial site but it appears a bit different from the what you have documented.

Here are the four I believe I should ask them to set up for me:


EasyBlog:
*/5 * * * * /bin/wget -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron";

EasySocial
*/2 * * * * wget -O /dev/null "http://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&task=cron";

Komento:
*/5 * * * * /bin/wget -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_komento&task=cron";

EasyDiscuss:
*/5 * * * * /bin/wget -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&task=cron";

Are these correct?

Also, the one we set up a couple years ago for my other site for Starch-Smart.com did look a bit different::
*/2 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=true";

Thank you, Sean Carney

Hey there,

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


*/2 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=true";

May i know your both domain site also using the same hosting right? If yes, i assume above cron command is work for you now right?

If everything is correct, I would suggest you to use following cron command and see how it goes.


// EasyBlog:
*/5 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron";

// EasySocial
*/2 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "http://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=true";

// Komento:
*/5 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_komento&task=cron";

// EasyDiscuss:
*/5 * * * * wget --no-check-certificate -O /dev/null "https://drcarney.com/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&task=cron";
