Anyone?

My cronjob email is this. Any ideas?

Solved it!

If you know this apologies, if you don't hope it helps!

/path/to/forums/articlebot is where I installed AB

/path/to/forums/cache

I created the cache directory and chmod 777 and voila it works.

Blindingly obvious, but took me a while to work out!

Will there be a version for vB 3.5?

Is there a way to edit the way the rss feed is displayed? Meaning is there a way to get rid of the full link to read the full article and change it to a [read more] type link.. Also is there a way to see more of the article or is it preset by the provider as to what is shown via the feed?

I'm new at with the whole rss thing.

I was going to ask the same thing. A lot of work seems to be going into the 3.0.* version. That's great, but you know what when 3.5 is gold, many will make the switch within weeks.

This is a great hack, and even if it's not available for 3.5, I gotta' offer my respect.

Hello,

My article bot constantly posts duplicate threads. I have no other problems except for the posts that are reposted even though they appeared hours, days, or weeks earlier. I already updated my MySQL with the change to make the cache title be text instead of varchar as noted earlier in this thread. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you,

when will this be for 3.5

Does the article bot use the mysql history or the file cache or both?

I have increased the $MAX_AGE to 2 years.

If the file cache is my problem why keep a second history in mysql?

I am having a problem with articlebot only posting the thread title but nothing in the description (body of the thread). I have it set to skip the articles with no description. Any fixes?
