Soumikbhat Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 What is the frequency of cron jobs allowed on free servers?And what is the procedure to set cron jobs? Also are services like easycron allowed to execute scripts hosted on free servers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 No more than 2 cron runs per 24 hours. You can create cron jobs through your cPanel. Yes to your 3rd question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 To add to Byron, crons run using services like easycron or setcronjob do not count towards your 2 per 24 hours (though I suppose running them too frequently could get you suspended for load...). Services like that are the recommended solution for people needing more cron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avatarci Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If you want to create something like a password reset to an email, PHP does have a function for that. Here is the link if it interests you. It's easier to use than cron jobs in my opinion. http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
