Some features in concrete5 depend on jobs, which have to be periodically executed if you want to use them. By default there are three jobs installed, which you can find in the dashboard when you navigate to System & Maintenance:
Index Search Engine: The full text search engine uses the Zend Lucene Search library, which has to be updated by a maintenance job. If you don't execute this job regularly, the website's users will only find old, outdated content.
Generate Sitemap: This job writes a file named
sitemap.xml
in the root of your website, which helps search engine crawlers to index your site.Process Email Posts: concrete5 has the ability to handle incoming e-mails. The included community-like messaging system depends on it.

Attention: By default, these jobs aren't executed. It's your responsibility as a website administrator to use a scheduler available on your hosting system to make sure...
