Hi All

Right I am running VB 4.0.1 as its all my licence will allow and I am setting up a new forum, so I want to know its potential before I upgrade so I ain't wasting money.

Anyway My Problem...

I have set up the RSS section so that every day the UK Sea Tides updates to the latest Times
ie
Bridlington
http://www.fishingyc.com/forumdisplay.php/27-Bridlington

its set to check the site for the RSS every 20 minutes
http://www.tidetimes.org.uk/Bridlington.rss

It did it the very first time yesterday and updated the forum correctly, however the RSS has since changed but the site hasn't updated.

If I go to the RSS Managers preview it shows the latest feed, its just not updating the forum.

I have tried resetting it and also tried running scheduled tasks, but nothing changes.

Any help is appreciated.

I thought maybe it was failing because the RSS posts were so similar but I don't think thats the reason now because if I remove the RSS and then re-apply it, then it will do the pick up and post, but still only the once and then it wont update automatically any more.

As far as I can see the scheduled tasks are right, the options are right and the rss feed is set up right...

am i missing somewhere to check as this is doing my head in searching for fixes that might not be there

cheers
