Hello and welcome! In today’s blog we are going to talk about the mysterious “cron job” you need to setup for your Dolphin 7 website to function properly. The Crontab is a time based scheduler that is used on most web servers to automate tasks. The tasks it automates for Dolphin are video processing, sending mass emails, and cleaning the database nightly. Not setting up this cron job (or setting it up improperly) is the #1 reason people report video uploads not working.
