i have been looking in the existing topics and saw e a few times that you used " setup a wget CRON task to run the auto actions URL"
The URL is working when i click it manual but i can not find how to make this sceduled every 6 hours f.e. How do i create a wget CRON task and where do i have to activate it ?
Can you help me with this one please? I do not know how and where to start.
A CRON task is something you configure within your host. You need to have it do a wget or curl call to the auto action URL if you're wanting to execute that auto action on a schedule. Note if your auto action relies on having a user object then the CRON task will be running the auto action as if they're a guest user (not logged in) so you need to take this into consideration. I don't recommend digging deeper into CB Auto Actions advanced usage cases like this until you first become more familiar with CRON. Below are example CRON task structures.
As for how to setup CRON you'll need to contact your host as it depends a lot on their hosting interface as they could have a guided setup for configuring CRON tasks.
