No, you can set up a cron job to run libs/karma.php once per day, or just visit yoursite/libs/karma.php to update the scores manually.

I receive this error at the top of the page when enabling this module:

You have not setup any feeds yet!
Go back and add a feed.

Warning: include(/libs/karma.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mypliggsite/public_html/cache/templates_c/c_e3b58b40a7fd35a704a6ce357a543ff8.php on line 14

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '/libs/karma.php' for inclusion (include_path='.') in /home/mypliggsite/public_html/cache/templates_c/c_e3b58b40a7fd35a704a6ce357a543ff8.php on line 14

The strange thing about it is that it doesn't show all the time just sometimes.

Is there anything I can do about this error message I keep receiving?

Disable the module. You really shouldn't be using this module anyway. If you don't have any feeds to import, the module is kind of useless to you.

Does this mean I have to update the point manually? if so how do I do that?

You can either point your browser to yoursite/libs/karma.php
or set up a cron to run yoursite/libs/karma.php once per day.

And how would I point my browser to yoursite/libs/karma.php or set up a cron to run once a day?

Simply type your domain-name.com/libs/karma.php in the browser text field and press the enter key on your keyboard. This is quite possibly the easiest thing in the world to do.

Setting up a cron job is different on most hosts. Contact your web host support and ask them.

    include_once('modules/rss_import/rss_import_main.php');
    
    rss_import_do_import(false);

?>

Please treat other forum members with respect. Just because the module does not work for you doesn't mean that it's not helping others. Your post doesn't seem to make any sense, if you are not a native English speaker, or are unable to speak English fluently, please post in your own language along with your English version so that we can try to understand you.
