I don't know what you are seeing but from what I can see that looks like the right interface. Please supply more information about what your error is.

[pwilly]

looks right, but doesn't work at all try clicking around:

http://smackdown.tv/rss/list_feeds.p...ion=addnewfeed

http://smackdown.tv/rss/list_feeds.p...eedLinkId=2 5

grr...

Ah, looks like yet another whitespace problem. Standard drill is:

Use a good FTP client like Filezilla (PC) or Cyberduck (Mac)

Use a good text editor like Ultraedit (PC) or Textmate (Mac)

Double check there is no whitespace at the beginning or end of the files around the <?php> bits. Upload and try again.

Anyone else care to troubleshoot this one, coz that's all I got.

So, for the above, whichever user has the id=16 is considered the author.

How do you set the tags? I've tried adding some tags but it does not work.

Thanks!

Hello,

I have tried to implement this RSS script but so far have been unsuccessful. Here's what I have done so far, please advise if I'm missing anything.

1. Copied the php script from this thread, and labeled it transfer.php and put it in my web servers root directory.
2. Created a directory called magpierss in web root dir, copied cache,fetch,parse,util, and extlib to the directory.
3 added a line in my crontab "45 * * * * /var/www/html/transfer.php >/dev/null 2>&1
"

So far nothing is happening, please advise.

Thanks,

Jason

Hi jason
I'm not sure how you got this code. The developer Ashdigg has only made this available though private request. If you got this code from from the user humaneasy a few posts up, then you'll never get it to work, he posted code he shouldn't have and it will never work. (early beta) The code he posted is incomplete.

Stick around though because I know Ash is working on this and he'll release it publicly when its finished.

I'm personally beta testing the code and it works great..

@ Jason

This could be triggered by a know issue wth that code and it is explained up there inthe thread:

Once the feed has been setup, click "Run this feed" to see how it will import and make sure there are no errors. If there are no problems, then edit [/rss/magpietest.php], line 62. Change the number 2 to a 0.

PHP Code:

if ($skipthis == 2) {$linkres->store();} 


change to

PHP Code:

if ($skipthis == 0) {$linkres->store();} 


Then re-run the feed, and it will import into pligg.

I should work.

If you were not an ass**** you would like to be what? It is the SECOND TIME you are offending me.

Go up there and READ THE POST. The code IS the code AshDigg offered in private to many of us per request and I put it there just because everyone was asking it over and over again and I tought that Ashdigg has more interesting things to do than being constantly sending the same file over and over again.

THAT code is not part of Pligg as you may have noticed AND it as NO WARRANTY whatsoever, not even from me.

By the way, the code works. It works for many of us. Just need to change that small line in Magpie.

Have a real pleaseant day and stop insulting me -- and, by the way, since the code is AshDigg's and not mine -- stop insulting others too.

Best regards.



PS: Had to use a new user because the regular seems to have an issue with the password and it doesn't resend it to me as it should.

Hey everybody, New guy here. Just installed my first pligg site (gotechgo.com) and am just now getting into the ins and outs. Just wanted to say that this feature is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I'm hoping to have my site as automated as possible, and this would be huge.

Not going to ask for any help yet, I still have a lot of reading / researching to do. Just wanted to say keep up the good work and you'll probably be hearing back from me (especially on this topic.) One question is if this type of setup can automatically bring up google news searches, which are sometimes as good as rss feeds.

I am a graphic designer (for print) so hopefullly I might be able to share some templates once I get the hang of this. (Used xoops before.) My php is pretty much nonexistent, but I know some CSS and can do graphics.

Any idea when a past-beta version will be coming out for the less technical users? Thanks!

[jitgos]

Welcome Joe, this feature is soon to get much better as AshDigg is finishing putting this into the admin panel and making it to where you can add all the feeds you want and have them run automatically as certain intervals. I got to play around with an uncompleted version of this feature and it's going to rock.

The google searches have an rss feed so there's no reason I can think of that they wouldn't work.

Oh and version 1.0 is coming out tomorrow... j/k... hopefully this year. With a 1.0 release there are some features that need to be implemented, bugs worked out, and documentation is excepected which takes time.

What a tease!

Seriously, between this and phpBB integration, I'll be set. (About the only other thing on my wish list is an integrated wiki.)

I just wish I could to contribute to the project, but I haven't done any programming since using Fortran in the early 90s!
