Hi great plugin very useful, I’m assuming this over time would make the database grow quite large if the logs aren’t deleted, it seems the longest option is 1 month it would be great if we could have a 3 month option, please?

Hi Steve,

You are correct that the database would become large overtime if the auto-deleting logs over time option is disabled.

The plugin uses the built in WP function for the cron intervals. You can add your own easily by adding this little snippet into your themes functions.php file:
```
add_filter('cron_schedules', function($schedules) {
   $schedules['three_months'] = array(
       'interval' => 7890000,
       'display' => __('Every 3 months')
   );

   return $schedules;
}
```
It’ll then appear as an option in the settings screen

Hi Steve,

There was a typo in the original code snippet. It needed an additional ); at the end. If you need any other tweaks I’d recommend grabbing a freelance developer – hope this helps!
```
add_filter('cron_schedules', function($schedules) {
   $schedules['three_months'] = array(
       'interval' => 7890000,
       'display' => __('Every 3 months')
   );

   return $schedules;
});
```
