I've been looking for a way to re-check the CSV file on my FTP after I have successfully imported it. I had hoped that there could be a way by setting up my cron on my server and updating Drupal's cron.php to include a script to basically re-process the original file. Someone has already mentioned on another thread that they added the following to cron.php and then setup a cron job on their server to process cron.php every hour:

$import = _user_import_settings_select(10);
_user_import_initialise_import($import);

Unfortunately, this doesn't work for me - yes, I changed the number in brackets to the ID of my saved list too. With a little fiddling, I do get a mention that the 'File has already been imported'.

Of course, I can do this manually by visiting the listed import at admin/user/user_import/add/ID and then clicking the import button again. Is there anyway of automating this process calling functions in cron.php, so it updates the same file every hour?

Thanks in advance.
