Compatible with MAGEPLAZA Cron Scheduler

Hi,

does anyone have experience whether the two modules are compatible with each other?

They don't conflict, but not all of the MagePlaza cron features are compatible. IMO, refactoring so the two can work together would be a great thing but it would be a bit of a lift.

@JesKingDev can you give a hint for what might be not working so the community can check and may make some pull requests if needed?

The scheduler one is quite simple, just view the cron job log to the grid and add extra action to execute from admin.

@tim-breitenstein-it and @onlinebizsoft - Based on my installation of both modules and reviewing the code, it looks like these are indeed compatible. There are some key differences in how the two are implemented, but here's what I found:

From the MagePlaza features list

• :white_check_mark: Monitor all cronjobs at the admin backend
• :white_check_mark: Record every state of a cron task in details
• :white_check_mark: Visualize cron tasks in a timetable
• :white_flag: Manually execute cron jobs
  • This should work, but it executes the job inline and independently from anything MageMojo is doing. There shouldn't be any conflicts here, but there may be some scenarios where the two modules step on each other.
• :x: Delete, execute or change the status of multiple cron jobs
  • Tested disabling a cron with the MagePlaza interface, but the schedules continued to run.
• :x: Backend notice when cron errors
• :white_check_mark: Auto-send emails when cron errors
• :white_check_mark: Auto-clear cron jobs log
  • MageMojo module also implements this, so no worries here.

Look like it is not compatible because Scheduler module has option to Enable/Disable certain cron job and Mojo one is not aware of these flag data
