Increase cron update

Submitted by jonny5 on Fri, 2008-02-29 12:38 in

My server only allows me to schedule one cron job , yet i have too many products/feeds to fetch/import all in one cron job , so each day i need to log into the server and change the cron to run a different fetch script for some other feeds.

is there a way to have one fetch script that cron runs every day but on monday,wednesday, friday and sunday fetches certain feeds and the other days fetches another set of feeds???

cheers

Hi Jonny,

Yes - you can do this, someone else has tried this before and I worked out the shell script code to run different parts of the script on different days. Please see the following thread:
