Set up a Cronjob / background task for Goosle
For a number of background tasks, like clearing up the file cache and/or renewing your Openverse access token you need to set up a cronjob. It is recommended run this cron job a few times per day. For example every 8 hours.
The access hash is always required as an access token, don't forget to include ?a=YOUR_HASH to the url.
Cron jobs are commonly set up from your hosting dashboard, or through something like DirectAdmin, cPanel or WHM.
Ask your hosting provider where to find the Cron job scheduler or have them set it up for you if you don't see it.
You can also use something like cron-job.org to trigger the background task remotely.
To test, you can also load the url in your browser and trigger the script that way. Look for the onscreen prompts to see what routines are executed.
Example for 10 minutes past every 3 hours 10 */3 * * * wget -qO - https://example.com/goosle-cron.php?a=YOUR_HASH
Example for 5 minutes past every 8 hours (I use this on my Goosle) 5 */8 * * * wget -qO - https://example.com/goosle-cron.php?a=YOUR_HASH
Example for every midnight 0 0 * * * wget -qO - https://example.com/goosle-cron.php?a=YOUR_HASH
Why a few minutes past the hour? Because most people run stuff exactly on the hour or some other predictable interval like 15 or 30 minutes. Running things a few minutes offset helps spread server load.
