How to create a cron job through your Control Panel


The cron jobs represent automated tasks operating at predefined time intervals. The cron job creation procedure includes a few easy steps to follow:

2. In home page, click on the Crontab image in the Site Management section.

3. The crontab interface of your Control Panel will allow you to set various cron jobs for your account.

3.1. First, you need to type in the command that will be executed. In our example, we set an echo command that must be executed every 5 minutes.
