Subscription run time

Hi, We want to send out newsletters every Monday at e.g. 6am in the morning. Currently the scheduler can be set to run every e.g. 5 minutes/hours etc. Is there a way to configure the scheduler to only execute on Mondays at a certain time ? (maybe an event that I can trap and set the "Next run time" programmatically to run on Mondays ?) Thanks Danie

Or, set it to run each day, at the correct time, and in the code you check if it is a monday. If not, you just exit. /Steve

Hi Steve, thanks for your answer. I thought of the same thing, but don't know where to write this check. The only place that I can think of to write this check is in the the "public void Send(PageData subscriptionPage,PageDataCollection changedPages)" function (SubscriptionPlugIn). But if I do this, then the subscriber will only get the most recent changes made since yesterday the function last executed instead of all the changes over the past 7 days (haven't tested it, so I might be wrong). Thanks, Danie

Ah, I thought you had your own newsletter implementation. You'll have to write a wrapper around the existing one (which you also have to disable in the scheduler.) Creating a new subscription handler might not be enough, as the search for changed pages is done outside the handler. Hm, tricky. /Steve

Hi, Maybe I just need to set the service to run every 7 days and set the "Next scheduled date" to 28 Aug 2006 (Monday) and then therefrom the service will execute every Monday. I think this should do the trick. Thanks! Danie
