Recurring Invoices option unavailable.
  • wiredcircuitwiredcircuit March 2011

    I have just downloaded and installed Simple Invoices with great success, modified my template to my requirements and all is well with the exception of Recurring Invoices.

    The option for Recurring Invoices is not available to me, I have however managed to setup taking the URL from the Demo site (http://simpleinvoices.local/index.php?module=cron&view=manage) (/index.php?module=cron&view=manage)

    ¿When it comes to setting up the Cron job should I be pointing at (http://simpleinvoices.local/index.php?module=cron&view=run) (/index.php?module=cron&view=run)?

    ¿If the cron job does not run on one day, will the missed invoice get picked up the following day and be sent?

    ¿Lastly on the same subject, where do I amend the default message on the Recurring Invoice e-mail?

    Many thanks in advance for you help

    OK I made some progress which I thought I should share with everyone.

    In the .htaccess file I added the top three lines above IndexIgnore *

    Options +FollowSymLinks

    RewriteEngine On

    I then amended my user.conf file in the apache directory. (I use OSX so the path is /private/etc/apache2/users/myusername.conf) changing the line AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All:


    Options Indexes MultiViews
    # AllowOverride None
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all


    This enabled the re-writes correctly so I could point my job at http://simpleinvoices.local/api-cron, NOT http://simpleinvoices.local/index.php?module=cron&view=run as I wrote in my first post.

    I still have the issue with the button for Recurring Invoices missing, but have added a bookmark to http://simpleinvoices.local/index.php?module=cron&view=manage to allow me to manage.

    Hope this helps someone else.

    Hey Stu,

    I've got the same problem whereas the menu option for recurring invoice is not showing. Did you ever get it sorted?

    Nope, well nope in that the menu still doesn't work but here is the hyperlink you need to get it working manually. I just setup a cron job to it... /index.php?module=api&view=cron

    Do you have your expense extension enabled? I have found that if the expense extension is enabled, the recurrence link goes away. I have asked the question as to why this happens and if there is a fix, but there has not been a response yet...
