Some tips how to automate the PHP list configuration.

Run the PHP List Bounce Processing Automatically Once a Day

  • add a cron job with the parameters 0 0 * * *, which runs the command once a day, which should be more than sufficient for bounce processing
  • obtain the PHP List Secret from your PHPLists installation, which is a character string to execute PHPList commands via the web-interface
  • add the following command to the cron job:
  • lynx -dump ‘http:/www………/phplist/admin?page=processbounces&secret=[INSERT PHP LIST SECRET]’ >/dev/null

Execute the PHP List Queue Management without Leaving the Browser Windows Opened

  • add a cron job with the parameters * * * * *, which runs the command every minute – however, you might want to run it less often, but I never had a problem with that frequency
  • obtain the PHP List Secret from your PHPLists installation, which is a character string to execute PHPList commands via the web-interface
  • add the following command to the cron job:
  • lynx – dump ‘http://www………/phplist/admin?page=processqueue&secret=[INSERT PHP LIST SECRET]’ >/dev/null
