Review:
This mod allows VB4 owners to easily add an Rssfeed from you admincp where it has the option to target cms as a destination of the feeds. This mod is build and tested on 4.1.5 so it should work on this version or any versions afterwards. But it is not supported for any version after4.1.8.
I build this mod because a lot of people where asking for it in several post here and there.
I tried my best to avoid file replacing in your forum so you will have no trouble when upgrading for newer vbulletin version so no worries.

includes/xml/bitfield_rssfeeds_cms.xml
7. Done
I havent been able to get this to work yet when i try to pull content nothing happens. I tried with multiple rss feeds.
Also is there anyway to do this for category and not just the section?
No worries Just give it sometime maybe there is no new feeds; it will work.
Or add new feed as test from new high quality source.
For category thing not on this version but may be in the next update.
Give it sometime try it and let us know how it goes
If you still have trouble try to disable "RSS Poster Robot" task
Updated Ok I found a nother bug:
When setting your feed you need to set the forum name to any forum it does not matter as it will be inserted as an article in the section you choose.
This is a temporary overcome until I update the mod.

Looks like this was the problem. Works fine now. The only thing now is I wish this mod would do this for categories as it wont really be useful for me until then.
