Add-On Releases - Rssfeeds for cms 4 VB4

vbfixer.com

Current version:
1.0.4


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 after 4.1.8.

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.

Did you renamed your admincp to something else?

No. The rssfor cms bot will grab content from a feed and post it, then go back and grap the same content and post it again. The defualt VB rssbot doesnt do this. Perhaps there is something simple missing in the rssforcms bot code which is in the defualt rssbot.

No, it doesn't work. I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it about three times. I've deleted the files and reinstalled them the same amount. Went back meticulously made sure they were in the correct folder. I'm at a loss.


As a caveat, when i uninstall the mod, the admincp link (on left bar) stays. it doesn't get deleted. So i'm assuming something is messed.

Check if bymistake you have two rss entries having same source, cause I'm using same mod and it is not doing this. To make sure disable all ss and only activate one of them.

I didn't told you to re-install the mod the installation is ok. No need to re-install the product cjust check uploaded files.

If this is not working
http://yourdomain.com/admincp/rssposter_cms.php
this means you didn't upload the files correctly to its locations

BTW the left pan will change only after you delete the uploaded files.

I checked everything, including if the rss feed itself had duplicate content. Basically it is grapping some content twice. Thanks for your help

Try it on another rss source (link)

Also if you can send to me the rss link and your settings so I can test it on my site

I doubt this is possible since each feed is logged so it will not be inserted again.

Thanks for the reply.

I have tried different setting, such as setting the amount to grap from 0 to 5 etc.

Here is one rssfeed. The duplication is random, so you might have to run it for a good twenty fours hours to see the duplication results im getting

Thanks again.
