On Sitebulb Desktop, the default behavior of scheduled audits works on the basis of two core assumptions:
That your computer is on when scheduled audits need to run
That Sitebulb is running on your computer when scheduled audits need to run
If both of these assumptions are met, Sitebulb will handle scheduled audits just fine. If either of them is not, then it is not possible for Sitebulb to carry out the scheduled audit.
However, Sitebulb has a number of in-built settings that help mitigate these issues.
Navigate to the Scheduled Projects tab
Access Scheduling Settings
Sitebulb's scheduling settings are accessible through the link on the Scheduled Audits page:
This link will bring you to a settings page with specific scheduling settings:
Adjust Scheduling Settings
The tick boxes on the scheduling settings page offer the following options:
Disable scheduling - stop Sitebulb running any scheduled audits at any time, while this box is ticked.
Load on Startup - enable Sitebulb to load up when you start up your machine and run silently in the background.
Run missed audits - if Sitebulb has not been running for some time and has missed some scheduled audits, this setting will force Sitebulb to queue up and run these audits the next time it is running.
These options come with a degree of nuance, so you may wish to read our reference documents for a more complete explanation of why they exist and how you might wish to use them.
