I have set cron to 5mins* How do i further customize it NOT to Run after 10pm till morning 8am ?
My reminders plugin which is based on cron job, run at night and 12am notifications to members is not good!
Any help will be really appreciated.
Look fw
Cheers!
so you want to close website in daytime or nightime?
if that is the case , sure you can do that. and it all depends what cron manager you use? are you use cpanel? or what cron manager software you use?
if i was you i would rather customize the reminder plugin then stop cron some hours
if(date("G") !=11){return;}
This will prevent below code to be run unless it's 11 am
From your post it appears your cron.php
already has similar code.
Pls post te content of your file.
Edit pluging cron.php at the very top add some like this.
if(date("G") !=11){return;}
This will prevent below code to be run unless it's 11 am

but you cron must run for message plugin working and i think for sign up working and many other things? and heavy load when start after stop long time.

class REMINDER_Cron extends OW_Cron {
public function __construct() { parent::__construct();
$activity = (int) OW::getConfig()->getValue('reminder', 'activityCron'); $avatar = (int) OW::getConfig()->getValue('reminder', 'avatarCron'); $friendship = (int) OW::getConfig()->getValue('reminder', 'friendshipCron');
$this->addJob('sendInactivityMails', $activity * 24 * 60); $this->addJob('sendAvatarMails', $avatar * 24 * 60); $this->addJob('sendFriendshipMails', $friendship * 24 * 60); }
public function run() { }
public function sendInactivityMails() { REMINDER_BOL_Service::getInstance()->processInactiveUsers(); }
public function sendAvatarMails() { REMINDER_BOL_Service::getInstance()->processUsersSansAvatar(); }
public function sendFriendshipMails() { REMINDER_BOL_Service::getInstance()->processPendingFriendship(); }
}

so please guide how to stop this plugin not to run in night 10pm to morning 8am
if(date("G") >= '22' && date("G" ) <= '8' ){return;}
Add this code after
parent::__construct() ;
Keep in mind I'm shooting in the dark here since am using my sell phone.
But basically you need to either prevent plugingfrom adding those 3 jobs or inside each jobfunction perform time check.
If yes then it may fulfill the purpose of sending reminder in morning rather then running on 12am?
Server cron should remain same. It should fire every min. My code will not brake the pluging it will only prevent the code below from running unless the specified criteria has been meat.
Please install xsammp server on your pc along with ow and test your codes there first.
on your cpanel, set cronjob writing on on minutes "*/5" and hours, 8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22 then cronjob will be executed every 5 minutes from 8am to 10pmWow thanks a lot!!!
