Cron Job Variable

Nick R · 07-02-2006, 11:42 AM

Where you make a new cron job it asks you for a variable. Is there anyway you can access this variable, eg: in a template like $vbcron['variablename'].

Regards,
Nick.

What do you mean by variable? The name of the cron?

No, i think it's 3.6 only. it asks you for a variable.

So it does, that's new in 3.6, and I haven't a clue what it's for ...

Thanks for that :p

I think it's just for running the cron job... Because instead of using the id which can change per forum you can just use a variable. Actually quite useful..
