How can i make the vb to run a query every 2 hours?

the query i want to run is:

Code:

UPDATE post
SET showsignature = 1

Create a .php file that will run the query, then add it to your scheduled tasks via AdminCP.

Look in your includes/cron folder in your forum installation. Those are the .php files used to run your cron jobs (scheduled tasks) within vBulletin.

Why do you want to run a cron job to show signatures in posts every two hours? It seems to me if you are having some sort of problem, you should fix that problem at the source.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
