Edit cron job

[DrumGirl]

Hi folks! I'm new here, just signed up a week ago.

I've been testing out the mail-to-post function on WordPress, and had a cron job running to force WordPress to check the mail every minute. Now I've got it working, and I'd like to change the cron job to only check the mail every few hours. But I can't figure out how to edit the existing cron job, or even how to delete it so I can just make a new one.

Can a more experienced BH user point me in the right direction? Edit or delete, either one is fine. Thanks!

Yeah if you've never seen it before it doesn't make a lot of sense ... so just go into CPanel => Cron Jobs and select "Standard" ... "Advanced Unix" is easier once you 've done it a few times but just stick with "Standard" for now.


If the command is working just leave that part alone, then go into each box and select the top input option {they should all start with 'Every'}.

Now if you want it to run say every 4 hours ... in the Hour field select "Every Four Hours" then go all the way to the bottom of the page and click "Save Cron Tab" and you're done :)

If you want to Delete a cron tab just click "Delete" in the entry you want gone :)

That seems to have done the trick--thanks!
