Hi,
I did find a thread about this, but it was 2 years ago so I'm hoping things might have changed.
I'd like to regulrly update the numbers in the gris statistic particle, but at the most daily. I was wondering if it would be possible to update these via a cron?
it would be a few counts from the db to update, number of members, number of articles in certain category etc
Is that possible at all?

Well anything is possible if you want to write the code to do it. All config is stored in /templates/TEMPLATENAME/custom/config
Alternately you could create a particle override and alter the code in that to retrieve the stats number dynamically.
To learn how to override a particle in Gantry 5 please see our documentation here http://docs.gantry.org/gantry5/tutorials/overriding-particle-settings#overriding-particle-source-files .
This is considered as a customization request which falls way beyond the scope of this support forum. You can always try to post your request in our The Marketplace forum and get (paid) support from someone that is willing to do this.
Given that you want to change the stats once per day, you have to change them somewhere so why not just change them in the particle and avoid having to change anything?
