    Hi guys,

    I've been using the keyword tracker for a loooong time, but the idea struck me: what if I could automate the checking with a cron job? I'm not sure if it's possible, because when I do it manually, a pop up comes up asking me to confirm the checking. So what I did was set up a cron job in cPanel like this:

    /usr/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/cervicalpillow/rankings.php >/dev/null

    and set it to run every day at a given time - but it didn't work. I guess because of the pop up?

    Any idea how to automate this?

    Thank you!

    There isn't a way to automate it beyond the normal setting to do so on your settings page...
