Introduction

Cron Observer runs Joomla Scheduled Tasks on time without relying on visitors to your site. Connect with your email address, choose a schedule in Joomla, and see recent runs from the administrator area.


Features



  • Passwordless email connection

  • Schedules from hourly to every minute, depending on plan

  • Recent run status and duration inside Joomla

  • Automatic Lazy Scheduler fallback

  • Pause, resume, billing, and disconnect controls

  • Updates through Joomla’s standard extension updater


The extension is a free GPL download and uses the hosted cron.observer service. The Free plan requires no card and includes three account-wide hourly jobs with seven days of history. Hobby and Pro add shorter schedules, more jobs, and longer history. Each connected CMS site uses one job.


During setup, the extension sends the email address you enter, your site name and URL, Joomla version, schedule settings, and run information to cron.observer. Payment details for optional paid plans are handled by Stripe.
