Exchange rate live update using corn


Recommended Posts

Hi, ive been creating a store, of multiple currencies,but everytime i had to update the prices manually by clicking the update prices,

i was using prestashop 1.7.8.8
now i updated to 8.0.1,

i want to setup corn job for automatically updation of prices,

i then read the devloper doc for setting of cron job for the same,

Im a noob at programming, couldnt undertsand how to set it up, got stuck at "secure key"
althought i found cookie key as mention but i dont know what to do next as stated secure key

secondly i looked at corn job at my host this is what it looks like, it has 2 options php and custom.

can someone help me with me, it would be a great gesture of yours

I am in the excact same situation as you are (and stuck at the same point). I would love to get this working so that I dont have to worry about updating the exchange rate maunally every day. Did you get this working yet?

 

## EDIT ##

I found this walkthrough and so far things look good.

 

It's for a previous version of Prestashop, but I think it's still good. I have made a note of the current values in the currency section and will know in 24 hours if they have auto updated via the new cron job. Hope it helps
