Help with a CRON File

[dknelson]

I recently installed a chat room in my VBulletin forum. It stores all the messages and any files uploaded to chat in the database. There is a link in the admin area that allows you to truncate the tables so that they don't get TOO big.

I want to add a CRON task that will automatically truncate the tables. I have two tables that need to be truncated, could be two separate CRON tasks or combined into one, doesn't matter to me.

I want it to delete all entries more than 24 or maybe 48 hours old.

Can anybody help?

Thanks

Wouldn't you be better off asking the developers of your particular chat room?

Normally yes. I figured that somebody could help here though. Though the chat software works OK, support is pretty much nonexistent.
