in the file product-horoscopes.xml

Find

case '11':
		{
			$horoscopesign .= ($bday[1] < 22) ? ($vbphrase['scorpio']) : ($vbphrase['sagittarious']);
			break;
		}
		case '12':
		{
			$horoscopesign .= ($bday[1] < 21) ? ($vbphrase['sagittarious']) : ($vbphrase['capricorn']);
			break;
		}

	}

Replace with

case '11':
		{
			$horoscopesign .= ($bday[1] < 22) ? ($vbphrase['scorpio']) : ($vbphrase['sagittarius']);
			break;
		}
		case '12':
		{
			$horoscopesign .= ($bday[1] < 21) ? ($vbphrase['sagittarius']) : ($vbphrase['capricorn']);
			break;
		}

	}

This will fix the sagittarius sign and make it show in the postbit template

I am having a problem getting sagittarius to show, I have done as said above and reuploaded the xml file but sagittarius is still not showing, any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone,

As an Astrology Researcher and the owner of a popular astrology-related website, I understand Hasann's and Mr_Snob's challenge to find rights-free, quality daily horoscopes to bring to the table.

Since I feel that this hack is almost impossible to handle with daily manual updates, yet once a solution is found, it is sure to become a great magnet for repeat visits - I'm willing to write (together with my staff) the daily feeds. The feeds will be structured according to the instructions that I'll be getting from the programmers.

However, there are two conditions:

a) The script must allow for group permissions. On my forum, only members should be allowed to access the daily horoscopes.

b) The text should include a credit box. I.E. I would like to include a reference to my website(s): either Relationships Analyst or Relationships Forums. That will be our reward for providing and serving the feeds.

What say ya'?

I think those are totally acceptable conditions!!

Even the link I wouldn't mind at all.

Thanks. I guess that we need to hear from the programmers first.
