Learning to do crons

[Dustin Rohel]

Could someone kindly teach me how to redo Cron jobs please? Everytime I do them... The days gone by are like it takes 1 minute and counts as 1 full day. Donator days for everyone have run out, Nerve, Energy etc refill twice as slow.

Any tips would be appreciated!

Thanks.

Since I'm not 100% sure which ones you need, these should cover most of your options:

* * * * * - Every 1 minute
*/5 * * * * - Every 5 minutes
*/15 * * * * - Every 15 minutes
0 * * * * - Every hour @ XX:00
22 * * * * - Every hour @ XX:22 
0 0 * * * - Daily (Midnight)
0 0 1 * * - First Day of every month

Was going to point you to the tool at https://crontab.guru so you could play, but noticed they have a pretty good cheat sheet with a tonne covered:

Thanks for that! Will try those 

Do those go in commands?

[corruptcity || skalman]

you should have a quick common settings box that will set the frequency for you then in the command you need
php /YOURWEBSERVER/public_html/cron_minute.php code="YOUR CODE GOES HERE"

and that's that

I got it and created a note of them to have for reminding me
