External Cron Settings on Lighthouse and Domain monitor extension

Support
1

Hello,

I tried to find documentation on the new extensions for the cron calls, but couldn’t find anything yet.
How can I trigger the cron for the lighthouse extension (similar to what is shown at How to set up cron job for MainWP) and the domain monitor extension?

I see the following files in ./wp-content/plugins/mainwp-lighthouse-extension/cron:

lighthouse_cron.php
lighthouse_cron_start.php
lighthouse_cron_sync.php

Do I need to call all three files? Does the order matter? How often should they be called if we’d only like to get the report once per month?

Similarly, for the new domain monitor extension I see the following files in ./wp-content/plugins/mainwp-domain-monitor-extension/cron:

domain_monitor_cron_alert.php
domain_monitor_cron_start.php

Do both files need to be called and in which order do we call them? How often would you recommend to call them if we just want a monthly report?

Thank you in advance and kind regards
Sascha

Let me get clear instructions from our dev team. As soon as I get it, I will post here.
