Cron jobs — scheduled work

⏰ Cron jobs — scheduled work

Two kinds: run a command inside your site, or call a URL on a timer down to the second

Which one to use

	Cronjob	Cronjob S
What it does	Runs a command on the server as that site's user	Calls one URL on a timer
Frequency	Standard cron schedules, minutes and up	Every N seconds / minutes / hours, down to 1 second
Best for	The Laravel scheduler, WP-Cron, backup scripts	Refreshing a cache, hitting your own endpoint

Schedule a command

Open Cron jobs → New job. Pick the site, name it, choose a schedule and enter the command. It runs in that site's folder as that site's user and cannot reach anything else.

php public/index.php cron php artisan schedule:run php wp-cron.php bash scripts/backup.sh

💡 Every run's output is kept in logs/cron-<id>.log — the “Output” button shows it.

Schedule a URL call

Open Cron jobs S → Add job. Name it, choose the interval (seconds / minutes / hours) and give the full URL. It starts immediately and can be paused or deleted at any time.
