Question Email cron jon

Hi

I have looked on the forum and github and found some information about this and the fact that kunena does not have a cron based email system which is not good for large sites.

There is a feature proposal at joomla to maybe add a global cron based email system which can give a cetralised system for multiple components but where you can configure email rate etc...

Perhaps the kunena team could lend their support to this feature.

+1 for this, would love to see Kunena utilize this new (to be developed) mail queue as it would solve a lot of potential issues (maillimits set by provider).

Hello,
Thanks for pointing this discussion, i will following it and see what's will be done in Joomla! 4.x

This suggestion got closed at github. Another good idea got ignored at Joomla.

The only way to do it is to use an paid extension : extensions.joomla.org/extension/jmail-queue/

Like suggested by mbabker we need to use a libraries to do it : issues.joomla.org/tracker/joomla-cms/19073#event-337607

My comment was more:

Joomla 'the platform' should have an inbuilt CRON system and email que system. Wordpress has an inbuilt CRON and it is still using global functions.

This issue was closed far too quickly and now will never be done from what I can see. Things like this is why Joomla is lagging behind Wordpress.

Also this would make Kunena function a lot better on high load sites.

Maybe this one can be insteresting : github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/25022 but not sure to send mail

Just thougt I would mention, I did not get an email from this thread otherwise I would of responed earlier.

At the very least the core team are now entertaining the idea that Joomla needs an inbuilt cron system. I would prefer a core component that regulates them where you can add or remove crons, but this plugin event methods will be ok. The plugin will be easily modified to add a component wrapper on top.
