Well, it only breaks the cron_start hook because I am using a different script than cron.php. I could always add my own hook.

I wonder if there is a way to divert vb to look there for cron_start. hmmm...

New version 1.1.2

Added ajax_cron_start hook. Now if you should ever have a plugin that uses the cron_start hook simply change it to use the ajax_cron_start hook.

Thanks for the update :)

If that's the problem, why not just add cron_start instead of ajax_cron_start in your ajax_cron.php? :confused:
Since you are rendering the vB default cron.php useless, whatever code would be executed in cron_start would be executed in your file instead.
Or am I missing something?

Is it that easy? I have never looked at how vb knows where the hooks are so I have no idea. I was planning on researching that this weekend.

Awesome. Installed.

New Version 1.1.3

Now it will just use cron_start hook if you have a plugin that uses it. Aparently vb doesn't actually care where the hook is located.

Live and learn.

Thanks go to Revan for the heads up.

New Version 1.1.4

This will now degrade gracefully when browsers have javascript turned off. When a browser has javascript turned off the default vb method will be implemented to ensure the cron runs.

Nice hack Code Monkey :).
