Hi all, i have a fresh install of NC18 (Hub) on a linux server at home. i enabled the option to have MAPS as app and its detecting the pictures and its showing me where they were taken. the only downside is that i need to keep refreshing to have 1 picture added per refresh. is there a way to run a cron job to have the pictures updated automatically? ive done the following commands already, but all jpegs will not show ./occ maps:scan-photos ./occ maps:scan-tracks your help is appreciated. ---

i was able to get this fixed by running the cron job every 5 minutes. i found out that the jpeg pictures started to appear after a few minutes. ---
