Per the solution about why users may not see a Reader Badge awarded, I was wondering how I might figure out when exactly the daily task for the Reader Badge is run? I’ve entered my discourse app and looked at the /shared/log/rails/production.log, but I wasn’t finding much. There also doesn’t seem to be a crontab for this task. (crontab -l returns nothing relevant) Any insight on how to figure out when it runs? And is UTC or a specific timezone? Thanks! :slight_smile: If it helps, I think the job is scheduled in /discourse/blob/main/app/jobs/scheduled/badge_grant.rb. I’m not experienced in ruby though, so take that with a grain of salt!

I’m sorry, I’m not exactly following.. I don’t know anything about sidekiq or rails :sweat_smile: I’ve tried to list out all the scheduled jobs in discourse: ss = Sidekiq::ScheduledSet.new ss.map{|job| job['args']} => [[{"topic_id"=>19, "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"topic_id"=>17, "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"type"=>"user_posted", ... "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"type"=>"user_replied", ... "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"post_id"=>1386, "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"type"=>"user_posted", ... "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"type"=>"user_replied", ... "current_site_id"=>"default"}], [{"post_id"=>1385, "current_site_id"=>"default"}]] but it doesn’t seem to be there. Granted, perhaps I ran that command wrong (answer 3 on SO). Any tips? Does the badge grant job not run by default? Appreciate your help!

Oh thank you! Solves everything :slight_smile:

See /sidekiq and the look for the job name that your found. You can force it to run and then it’ll run the same time the next day.
