Feature Request: Update via CRON

Hi,

As for now, I see two way of updating productes:

1: By enabling auto update switch. However it does only work when browser is open, and it does it only once a day, and time cannot be selected when I would like to run it. Basically, if my computer is off when whatever time the update would run, Update will not happen at all.

2: By triggering the update button manually. that is working however I like to update the products automatically probably every 2 hours, to limit the issue when someone orders an item but the product is not available anymore.

It has already happened when I have imported a product from the so called ready made list of products within the plugin, but then few hours later the product was already removed from Aliexpress.

So the features I would like to have are the following:

1: If a product has been imported from the list made available by the plugin, and that cost credit to import, if the imported product is gone from Aliexpress in x amount of time, the import credit should be credited back.

2: Allow users of the plugin to set updates via Cronjob (where obviously the browser dont need to be open) and/or allow Update to be planned from the browser more often, while the time could be set by the user.

As for now, I was able to make a code in WP to update products every 30 min but I would really like to have the option to do it via CronJob.

Thanks.
