Thanks for your excellent response and guidance to us all on GDPR compliance.

I'm setting mine up now with EasySocial... I wanted to confirm if the Cron Job needed for GDPR is SEPARATE from the existing one... and if so what recommended run frequency for the GDPR one - presumably 'once every day' would be enough?

So I already had /bin/wget -O /dev/null "http://yoursite.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=1 for cPanel based on the documentation at https://stackideas.com/docs/easysocial/administrators/cronjobs/cpanel-cronjobs

Is the /bin/wget -O /dev/null "http://yoursite.com/index.php?option=com_easysocial&crondata=1"; given at https://stackideas.com/docs/easysocial/administrators/configuration/general-data-protection-regulation needed as well?

I'm assuming they are both needed and both do different things but just wanted to check.

Thanks!
HI Andy,

Yes both are required so that both Easysocial notifications and GDPR request can be perform. Honestly, if you set once a day, it should be okay, but when your users requested them(Users data), it might took longer for them to be process in case your user have a lot of data. It is better you can configure them accordingly.

So, from what i see, you should be good to go already.
