Currently people receive their "saved searches" every day.

Is it possible to have this email sended only once a week? I am affraid that people will unsubscribe if it gets sended every day.

How do I adjust this?

Kind regards Hugo

Hello,

Could someone help me with this problem or provide a solution?

Kind regards hugo

In oc-includes/os-class file alerts.php look for:
 
$internal_name = 'alert_email_hourly';
  switch ($type) {
    case 'HOURLY':
      $internal_name = 'alert_email_hourly';
      break;
    case 'DAILY':
      $internal_name = 'alert_email_daily';
      break;
    case 'WEEKLY':
      $internal_name = 'alert_email_weekly';
      break;
    case 'INSTANT':
      $internal_name = 'alert_email_instant';
      break;
  }
Change first line from: $internal_name = 'alert_email_hourly'; to $internal_name = 'alert_email_weekly';

Cool! but the emails are currently sended on a daily base. Wouldn't this mess things up? from hourly to weekly?

@Hugo,

Is your cron set on a daily base only maybe? As it is set now in the file it should send email every hour with cron hourly but only in case there is something that has been changed to the user settings else it will use daily base cron execution.
As far as i can see it shouldn't mess things up... On my website this is set as provided and for me this works.
Anyway you can always reverse if it doesn't act as expected 

Osclass currently does not allow to set frequency, it set iit to daily by default.
I do not remember where this value is set, but at start try to just change frequency in database to weekly.
If it helps, then you can search where default value is set
It seems like good idea to be able to change frequency in user account

I have changed the value in t-alerts to WEEKLY and looks like this is the correct way to do it.
Value gets set in folder oc-includes/osclass/model file Alerts.php on line 347 there is
public function createAlert($userid, $email, $alert, $secret, $type = 'DAILY')
Changed to:
public function createAlert($userid, $email, $alert, $secret, $type = 'WEEKLY')

Every time a new alarm is created it is now standard on WEEKLY base in db field e_type ...

We hope to add this feature in the next update
Because if you update to the new version and it is not approved
You have to enter this again
If the official thinks that the topic is important, I hope to add it to the next update
