Hi Coy7,

Would you mind posting your cron job??? Is it PHP or Perl? I have never done this before and am curious. Looked at the doexpire.php and subscriptions.php scripts, which make some sense, but am not sure how they are getting invoked and what sorts of return values are expected.

I think I misread Josh's post... is it true that I just need to have my host setup a cron job that points to the birthdaycron.php script and it will fire off??

Cheers,

I'll freely admit that Josh set up my cron tasks for me because I'd looked at them and felt out of my league. He also provided the wording for sending to my hosting company (I posted about that it this thread: https://ubbdev.com/threads/php/...view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&vc=1)

So, I guess I'll leave Josh to answer exactly which files need to be modified because I'm not sure, and cuz he's up and no one else is here so maybe he's bored
