The userid of the user is 15.

I've tried to get this to work, but if I try to add a feed it says "No file located at... whatever the url is"

Am I doing something wrong. I've put the url in exactly as it says and everything.

A Wonderful Hack :)

However for some reasons I found instructions a bit confusing specially those given in articlebot.php as remarks or may be I failed to figure it out correctly at first place.

Otherwise job weldone.

I think the cron job thing may a bit confusing to some people, but it can much more easily be set up in the "scheduled tasks" area of the ACP, instead of using the methods described in the read me. The other methods work, but I would think the first plan of action would be to set up a scheduled task via the ACP instead of using phpMyadmin, etc..

and I agree- excellent hack- I am having a lot of fun with it.

Hmm I have added this except it doesnt get the news. it just doing do anything :rolleyes:

I have seen some examples of this script in use, but the forum post has the title, and a link to read more... (but not the full article)

Is there a way to pull the entire RSS article? and then have the link at the bottom? I did a quick search, but did not see anyone talking about this option...

Can this be done?

InterFX

as stated earlier in the thread, that is up to the feed provider. If the feed provides the full story then you can post it, but if it doesn't you can't. You are at the mercy of the feed provider in that sense. If you don't like the feeds, then look around, there are many feeds that do provide more extensive info than "click here to read the story!" :)

i download this hack to try it out
all setup fine , added a cron tab , made a notify to my email to see when crontab ran.

My forum is still empty and didnt get any rss , i was tryin two different rss feeds
Wired rss feed and newisfree which was suggested by authos.
Any ideas ? I am having no error messages of any kind , just the forum that i specified to recieve posts is empty !

A quick question as I've only just got round to installing this and 35 pages of posts is a bit much to read.

Can you set it to post in a particular forum? If you can then can someone enlighten me to how as there ain't nothing about that in the readme.

OK I'm a dunce I just realised the setting is in the Add RSS screen.
