[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Class)]
public class ScheduledPlugInAttribute : PlugInAttribute

The class must implement a public static method with name "Execute", it will be called on the interval specified in administration mode. A optional return value can be specified for a descriptive text.

Important! If you change the class or namespace name the old scheduled job will still be active but without a settings page, you should manually delete this job from the database in table tblScheduledItem.

The property HelpFile can be set to link to a custom help page for the job.

A simple example of a scheduled class, the return type could be void if you don't want to return a descriptive message. Throwing a exception will in this case show up as "FAILED" on the history tab i admin mode.
