Contact Enhanced Cron Plugin, also known as Cronjob Scheduler, allows you to run some tasks that are automatically triggered on a schedule you define. 

The available tasks are:

• Delete old attachments;
• Delete old Recorded Messages
• Send reports to selected email address with the Subject of the latest submitted forms
• Send partial abandoned forms to form recipient(s).
• Synchronize contacts with another Joomla installation.

 Usage

There are two ways to configure how the plugin will be executed.

1. Via Cron Job in your Unix-like server;
2. Via page load;

Server Cron Job Method

Add a cron job pointing to http://yourdomain.com/?cecronkey=SecurityKeyHere, where SecurityKeyHere is your Security Key, which is an extra security measure, so other people/servers will not be able to execute your cron.

If you are on Linux use following CRON command 

/usr/bin/wget -q -O /dev/null http://YOURDOMAIN.com/?cecronkey=[YOUR_RANDOM_SECURITY_KEY] > /dev/null 2>&1

Page load Method

Interval time

The interval the plugin will be executed in either method above described 

1. Synchronize contacts with another Joomla installation.

Synchronize Contact Enhanced » Contacts from different Joomla installations. The contacts from this website are going to be copied/updated/deleted on the 'Slave' website(s) as long as the following conditions are met:

1. The Contact Enhanced categories have already been manually created at the 'Slave' site(s) with the same alias
2. Contact tags will not be synchronized,
3. Categories will not be synchronized,
4. Custom Contact Fields will not be synchronized,
5. Form Fields will not be synchronized,
6. All Joomla installations are running the same Contact Enhanced version.

You can add multiple slave sites.
