Scheduler tasks

Scheduler tasks provided by ext:clubmanager

Mail service task

The ext:clubmanager automatically generates e-mails for certain actions. To send them automatically, the scheduler task EMail Service (clubmanager) must be set up and triggered in short intervals if possible.

  1. Go to the module System > Scheduler

  2. Use the + icon in the topbar Create new task

  3. Set dropdown Class to clubmanager > EMail Service (1.)

  4. Set task frequency (2.) to a short interval. */1 * * * * ensures that the task is executed every minute.

  5. Set Maximum number of emails per run (3.) to a number, which fits to the needs of your club. If the number of members is high, it makes sense to increase the Maximum number of emails per run.

  6. After you have filled in all required fields click Save.

Note

Note that with 20 mails every minute (as given in the example) the task may try to send 1.200 mails per hour. Please check if your provider limits the number of outgoing mails and make sure the limit is not reached by the mail task configuration.

Member login reminder task

The basic version of ext:clubmanager provides the scheduler Task Reminder Email (clubmanager), which can be used by which members who have never logged in to the member area before get a reminder e-mail after a predefined interval to do so.

  1. Go to the module System > Scheduler

  2. Use the + icon in the topbar Create new task

  3. Set dropdown Class to clubmanager > Member login reminder (1.)

  4. Set task frequency (2.) to the shortest possible interval. 0 7 * * 2 ensures that the task is executed every tuesday at 7am.

  5. Set Days until reminder (3.) to a number of days, after which a member is to be reminded again. The lower the number of days, the higher the probability that a member will perceive the message as spam.

  6. Set List of PIDs for members, comma-separated (4.) if only members from certain folders should receive a reminder email. If the field is empty, all members who have never logged in will receive an email.

  7. After you have filled in all required fields click Save.

Create new task Reminder email (clubmanager)

Create new task clubmanager > Reminder email

At the set time, the scheduler runs Task Reminder Email (clubmanager) and creates a new reminder email for all active(!) members who have never logged in before, a new Email Tasks Member Login Reminder. During the next automatic execution of the EMail Service scheduler task, all open Email Tasks will be processed one after the other.

Important

For all members for whom a reminder e-mail has been generated, the First login reminder email field in the linked user record is automatically provided with the current timestamp. A new reminder email will be generated after the days specified in the Task Reminder Email (clubmanager) under Days until reminder and only if the member has still not logged in!
