Nevermind I got it working

can some one tell me what I am doing wrong?

My test board is located public_html/test.

I only get these errors back and never get it to work.


Warning: file_get_contents( http://scripts.ign.com/rss/ign.all.2.0.xml): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /includes/init.php(292) : eval()'d code on line 218

Thanks All

Check to make sure your cache directory has the correct permissions (chmod 777) and that the path is correct.

hey i totally missed this when it was first posted. thanks!

how do we limit the descriptions to say 100 characters and then add (...)?

this definitely great! word of the day is already up and running on my board. a question though, is it possible to have the user defined rss show up on the users profile page (MEMBERINFO template)?

Installed without problems, left all settings as their defaults, added an rss feed, which is cached correctly in the cache folder, but nothing gets generated in my forum's home page at http://support.iambic.com/forum/

ideas?

Double check to make sure the plugins are all active. Other than that you might manually edit the template as a test to see if the $feedcontent array is being populated.

The other possibility is that the feed, although cached, can't be processed for some reason. This will also cause the symptoms you are seeing.

What's the feed url you are using?

thanks Tom for the quick reply -- looks like it didn't like much the atom feed, while with the RSS feed works fine.

I was trying to use the following without luck:
http://www.iampowered.com/atom.xml

so I switched to this one instead
http://www.iampowered.com/index.xml

perhaps the plugin doesn't currently support atom feeds... I should have double checked the infos above first :)

tg, great hack. For whatever reason however it is only working intermittently for me. Sometimes fine (often have to do a 'refresh') and sometimes no - FORUMHOME page completely fails to load. I know it's rss hack related. When working I noticed display alternates with each 'refresh'. (gone - displayed - gone - etc . . .???)

Note: I know I have one issue with '777' permissions as my server only allows '755' max but appears to working(albeit intermittently) nonetheless.

See explaination from hosting company: Implementation of PHPsuexec.

When you say 'outside the web root' do you mean anywhere except alongside 'public_html'??

thx!! Rabbit
