Increase frequency of run time? #28

Currently it seems it runs once a day. Is it possible to increase that?

I have the re-notification set to 7200 seconds

Sorry for the delay in responding back.

The OSUpdateNotifier.sh will only run once a day if you have set an End Date and it is past the End Date when the script executes. Once it is past the End Date, the user will get notified X amount of times (based on how many deferrals/postponements are left) and that notification will take place every 24 hours. That's hard coded into the script.

The re-notification period comes into play when you have set the Nag Date and it is past the Nag Date (but before the End Date assuming you've set that). The idea here is that you get to control how often the user is notified to update and the user has no control over this. You can modify the re-notification period as part of the script.

Let me know if this answers your question.
