Can MyBB run in a hosting which doesn't provide cron? I ask because I found a really great hosting site NearlyFreeSpeech.net but they don't run cron tasks.
How much functionality will be removed by lack of cron?
The cron tasks works with PHP, they don't need permission for cron tasks.
They don't have cron enabled. So would it work?
Thanks for that! That saves me a lot of headaches.
not to get off topic ... Just a Simple Question about cron jobs?
Cron Jobs work for linux based OS ONLY?
I don't think we this problem for those of us who have a Windows Server.

You have to deal with Windows Task Scheduler :p
Edit: If you use PHP crons i think you don't need it server side and can work regardless of OS. I think at least.
Yeah, tasks in MyBB are triggered by a bit of code in the footer when someone views the page.
Thanks Matt. That saves me a lot of headaches. I just shifted hosting and I wanted to be sure.
