Im having a bit of problems.
The feed wont update and add new items ???
it added 2 the first time i executed the feed but not anymore.
Can i have a bit of help here guys ?

Known problem, read through the thread, there's a fix there.

Could you link to the post? I'm having the same problem, and some of these longer threads are hard to read word for word searching for the right bit of text.

:)

Thanks!!!

(I am having the same problem by the way)

Read through that page, the whole page, the bugfixes are explained in there.
Perhaps the author should start supporting his own hack like he agreed to though;)

yeah... none of that still works for me... too many bugs... not enough good code.

I'll try again when a new release of this comes out, or someone else re-releases it with new updates.

Thanks

If it didn't work, make sure you haven't been banned from the feed itself. Those fixes WILL fix the problem of not updating, I know, I had the very same problem myself. There are 2, maybe 3 fixes that should be made.


As far as releases, well, who knows. The code works if you apply the fixes, but you've got to apply them all to get it to work;)

Ok, I just took a few minutes and put together a WORKING install of this.
The file edits have been taken down to 1 and the cron script IS included.
The only thing different between this and the first zip is the file edits and the bugs have been fixed in rss_update.php.

I just tested this, and installed it on vb3 gold. There's no question in my mind it's working.
When you design the forums for these, you'll want to make sure that the forum handles html, otherwise you'll have a problem.

I installed this one an managed to get it to update three times. Not sure what it takes to get it to update, but it does work. I do think it makes a difference on which feed you use. The CNET 5 news is what is working for me, the Yahoo news feed is one I found scary. Loaded the forum with about three pages of posts, stupid crap. So that forum is gone. Now I wanted to ask how I can I allow only the bot to post, with forum closed to all other users.

P.S. The really need to move this one to Beta releases, sorry Xyphen.

Funny, it's not working with the vB3 newsfeeds :(

Going to install it today on vB3 Gold and checking how it works... have it running fine on RC3
