I set cronjob in this way... are corrects?

Hello,

I have done a new installation on Dolphin (6.1.6) and I set cron jobs in the way presents in the image I attached.

Are they set correctly?


So, in your opinion, cron job are really importants for a perfect working of Dolphin?

Thanks.

i dont think crons affect the performance of the site, as much as they provide you with a set of automations that allows you as the site admin to have communications with your site.

CMD

Notifies

Cupid

Just an FYI the Boonex one that fires every minute is cupid.php:
* */1 * * *


That basically says:
Fire every minute of every hour divisible by 1
Well all hours are divisible by 1 so it ends up meaning "fire once every minute".

By far that is the most important one to look for and fix, if you see that stupid * */1 thing anywhere for cupid.php u should change it to:
19 * * * *
Where 19 is any number between 1-59.

so it is my belief that the suggested settings on the cron, are incorrect, and can bog down a server. who wants a notification every minute of every hour of every day.

Well I would maybe do something like this for maybe three installs:
cmd.php:
7 2 * * *

notifies.php:
1,11,21,31,41,51 * * * *

cupid.php:
17 * * * *

hope this helps you out.

Stock setup is good. If not using matchmaking...remove the cupid.php cron and you will be set.
