Cron Jobs

[inthemaf]

Hello everyone.

Sorry to bother you all. Can anyone tell me if on a free account you can create a cron job?

I am looking to run the following command

5. Ask your host to perform this command for you (replacing YOURDOMAIN and YOURSECURITYTOKEN with your actual domain name and security token which you set in include/config.php):
* * * * * wget -q 'http://YOURDOMAIN.com/private/cron-run.php?security_token=YOURSECURITYTOKEN' -O /dev/null

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi,

Yes; you can configure Cron Jobs by switching to the cPanel x3 theme and then going to the Cron Job tab but please remember you cannot run more than 1 job in 5 minutes. The line you pasted would run every 1 minute; please change it to every 5 minutes when you're adding your cron job, or it will be automatically removed.
