⏰ Cron Jobs Configuration

Cron jobs are essential to ensure that your scheduled tasks (AI Publishing, Post Publishing, RSS Feeds, etc.) run automatically without manual action.


🔑 Secure Cron Key

  • Each cron URL is protected by a Secure Key.

  • You can regenerate a new key anytime by clicking Change Key.

  • Always update your server’s cron jobs if you change the key.

⚙️ Setting up on Server

  1. Open Cron Jobs in your hosting panel.

  2. Add each cron with * * * * * (every minute).

  3. Use either URL method or Artisan command depending on your server.

Windows / WAMP

  • Use Task Scheduler to run the Artisan command every minute.


✅ Recommendations

  • Run all crons every minute for real-time execution.

  • If your hosting restricts cron frequency, set it to at least every 5 minutes.

  • Always test after setting up to confirm tasks are executing.
