    Hi,

    Anyone know php code to delete old file. I have old file in this cache directory /public_html/cache/ .

    I know maybe the best way is using cron, I know how to setup cron in cpanel but I don't know the php code.

    Any idea :confused:
    Thanks in advance :)

    Use the code to list the files and use unlink() to delete it
