When does the 'on user request' option for cron jobs trigger expiration emails? Is this when someone views an ad? We have a site where the ads aren't visited much, so I'd like to use the web cron or linux option. I've had limited success with the web cron link. It doesn't work consistently in triggering the email to ads that will be expiring (in our case 14 days out).

When I enter the web cron address in the browser, I get the following messages: "hourly action" and 'done' or sometimes just "done". so, I think the web cron command is working, but it's not sending emails in my test.

thank you.

We don't get alot of traffic for the ads, so I want to use the web cron or linux task to do this daily. The web cron job seems to return a 'done' message, but I can't get it to work all the time. I've been testing it over the last month, setting an ad to expire and then running the web cron, 14 days out. I've only been able to get the system to send the expiration ad two times.

When I run the web cron, I do get a message:

Hourly Action
Done

But, the ads that are expiring (in 14 days) are not getting an email...at least consistently. I was only able to get it to work just a couple of times over the last month.

Anything else to configure or look into?

anyone have any success getting the webcron job to work properly?

when is the next version coming out?
