RSS Import Feed - Feed Frequency Not working

[ant560]

I am using RSS Import Module in my Pligg Installation 9.9.0
I have set the feed to be imported every 12 hours. But the feed is not been imported automatically until & unless I login as a god user & click the import feeds button.

Can anyone help me setting up the feed to be imported automatically without logging in & clicking the button.

Below are the feed configuration for reference

- Feed Frequency (hours): 12 -- how often to check for new items.

- Feed Order: 1 -- Do we start with the last items first? 0 = no, 1 = yes

- Feed Random Votes: 1 -- Do we use a random number of votes? 0 = no, 1 = yes

- Feed Votes (if not random): 1 -- how many votes new items recieve (limit 200)

- Feed Votes Minimum (if random): 1 -- how many votes new items recieve (limit 200)
- Feed Votes Maximum (if random): 4 -- how many votes new items recieve (limit 200)

- Feed Items Limit: 3 -- how many new items to take from the feed when it's checked
- Feed URL Dupes: 0 -- Allow duplicate URL's 0=No, 1=Yes, Allow
- Feed Title Dupes: 0 -- Allow duplicate Title's 0=No, 1=Yes, Allow
- Feed Submitter Id (number): 3 -- The ID of the person who will be listed as the submitter
- Feed Category Id (number): 2 -- The ID of the category to place these items into

-- feed field name: title --- pligg field name: link_title --- Remove this link
-- feed field name: feedburner : origlink --- pligg field name: link_url --- Remove this link
-- feed field name: atom_content --- pligg field name: link_content --- Remove this link.

PLEASE HELP!

Same as above...also
In regards to Feed Order does "last item" mean oldest or does it mean the newest item in the feed? I want the most recent item to be posted that comes through the feed to be at the top. Since that is the case do I need a 0 or a 1 in that spot?

When I put the upcoming in feedburn the newest feed is on the bottom and the oldest is on top.

Thanks for any suggestions.

PLEASE HELP!

Did you set up a cron job to run the import script? Thats the only way it will run at specific time intervals.

Thanks for the reply...I am missing the cron job. But when I try to added it


/usr/bin/php -q /home/xxxx/public_html/modules/rss_import/import.php>

I am getting an error
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: `/usr/bin/php -q /home/xxxxx/public_html/modules/rss_import/import.php>'


try without the >
/home/xxxxx/public_html/modules/rss_import/import.php

Error
<b>Warning</b>: main(Smarty.class.php) [<a href='function.main'>function.main</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in <b>/public_html/modules/rss_import/import.php</b> on line <b>7</b><br />

<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: smarty in <b>/home/xxxx/public_html/modules/rss_import/import.php</b> on line <b>8</b><br />


any suggestions?

------- V 9.9
Update: Now working - here is what I did.

In your cpanel
Command to run:
/usr/bin/GET http://www.yourdomain.com/Directory-Folder/import.php


Now you need to your goto
>>modules>>rss_import/ folder and copy the import.php file to your root directory

Hope it helps


Thanks again

"Dollars5" Comments in my thread : There is no way a file can automatically run itself - unless you explicitly call it or call via cron job.

If you donot want/ donot have a cron setup at your server - use a site that offers free cron job scheduling for you (a simple google search will get you many) or better switch to a host who offers cron - that is lot better
