## How syncing works
The new syncing features include: pushing and pulling.
### Pushing
Submissions you receive can be submitted to other directories using a push target.
You do this by creating an entry in the sync-targets table with the push bit set to `1`.
Also, you must enable pushing in your `.htconfig` settings.
The next time `include/cron_sync.php` is run from your cronjob, the queued items will be submitted to your push targets.
### Pulling
For pulling to work, the target server must enable pulling.
This makes the `/sync/pull/all` and `/sync/pull/since/[when]` methods work on that server.
Next you can add an entry in the sync-targets table with the pull bit set to `1`.
Also, you must enable pulling in your `.htconfig` settings.
The next time `include/cron_sync.php` is run from your cronjob, the pulling sources will be checked.
New items will be queued in your pull queue.
The queue will be gradually cleared based on your `syncing.max_pull_items` settings.
You can check the backlog of this queue at the `/admin` page.
## How submissions are processed
1. The /submit endpoint takes a `?url=` parameter.
