I have a php script that I want to run every day to persist some data in the database. What is the easiest way to achieve this ?
Does Wordpress
provide some kind of scheduler event that can run some php
code at a given time ? Or is creating a scheduled event in the MySQL
database the correct way ?
Thank you.
If you're running on a Unix system I would recommend using cronjobs.
If you're running on Windows please take a look at this SO thread: What is the Windows version of cron?.
