Hi Konzertheld You are right, Habari's "cron" is not the same as the OS cron. It is effectively just a time based hook that causes an action to be run when your Habari site is accessed on or after the date you've set in your cronjob. The "job" is stored in the database and when the site it viewed, CronTab::run_cron() checks which entries need to be "run" and runs them.
So provided you have valid entries, and the system time and timezone is correct, your "cronjobs" should run when someone views your site, admin included.
