    Hello,

    i have a question which i split in two.

    1. What do i have to consider if the actions runs for a long time (>15 minutes) i guess the php max execution time has to be modified?

    2. can i add cron jobs automatically?
    if so i could split the calculations to many short calculations, is it possible to add an order to the jobs so if i have 10, they will be executed in a specific order?

    Thanks for you help and the plugin, seems to be exactly what i need.

    Hi,

    1) Sure the PHP max execution time and the available system resources you have – there may be caveats to running for such a long time if you are processing large amounts of data for example. Depending on what software you are running, there could be some other factors causing your issue but start with execution time 🙂

    2) Currently we don’t support the automatic creation of tasks but I am looking into the benefits of setting up so every task runs on an independent schedule and while I do that will get an action running to easily create tasks.

    I hope this helps!
