Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any ideas about the possibility of setting up reports to be emailed automatically at a certain time and date?

 

Is it possible to automate any kind of email in oscommerce to send at a particular date? .. i read that this may be a limitation of php but don't fully understand.

 

thanks everyone,

 

alex

you should ask your host if you can have access to setup a cron job, or ask them if you send them the exact setting required for the cron job, if they will insert it in there for you.

if your host will allow you to set up a cron job, then you should learn the various settings of setting them up, use your favorite browser and type in cron, or you can go to a *nix web site which shows you the different ways of setting this up. if you have a host control panel, this may already be setup for you.

you will also need to determine what you want to do with the job of sending reports, etc, as you did not explain that here.
