Setup WordPress Cron for old data synchronization

If your store was active before this plugin installed and you need to sync old products, orders to Zoho then setup cron like this. First, you need to disable the script to be executed every time someone loads one of your pages. To do this, open the wp-config.php file in your main WordPress folder and add the following line before the "/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */" line:

define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true);

Once you do that, you need to setup a real cron job and execute the wp-cron.php file with it. You don't want to trigger it too often - hourly should be fine for most of the websites. To do this, login to your cPanel and go to the Cron jobs tool located in the Advanced section.

Then, add the following command to be executed every 1 hour:

wget -q -O - http://yourdomain.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron >/dev/null 2>&1

Then click on Start Sync button as shown below. Do this only once automatic sync for new products, orders and customer is working.
