Multiple Cron Jobs at the same time

    Hi guys,

    I’ve read the documentation of the plugin but either couldn’t see or there isn’t info about running multiple cron jobs at the same time, so my question is:

    Could this plugin handle multiple cron jobs at the same time?

    Let’s say, if I need to update 2 feeds, as far as I understand I should run 2 different triggers:
    1st trigger at 01:10 AM.
    2nd trigger at 01:20 AM.

    Then, is it possible to run 2 processing cron jobs at the same time?
    1st processing cron at 01:30 AM (every 2 minutes)
    2nd processing cron at 01:30 AM (every 2 minutes)

    Is this going to work?

    Thanks for your help and info in advance!

    Hi @razmzk,

    Technically it’s possible to run both imports at the same time via cron jobs, but it’s not recommended – actively running imports are resource-intensive and could cause your server to struggle.

    If it’s an option, I’d strongly recommend running them sequentially instead.

    Hi guys,

    Many thanks for the quick response. Definitely not an option on low resource servers or shared hosting plans. To good thing is that this is technically possible.

    Cheers!
