I did not changed anything but it is working now :)

(i only fixed some errors in the log.)

But it added all 50 topics at same time ??

Edit:
Oh i see its settings can change on Scheduled Tasks.

I think the problem is fixed.

And I tested the mod on a clean install of RC1-1 and it worked flawlessly.

Yeah it feeds the posts the first time no problem. If I add a new feed it will post everything from the new feed but after that no new posts a made.

I guess with mine I will have to delete the feeds and re-add them and see I can make it work again.

I am having a problem where I am using your code for 'Regular Expression' which is ~<div id="articlestory">(.*)<\/div>~siU but it stills keeps on showing only the description of the feed. It doesn't open the feed article and post the whole feed. Yes I have 'Retrieve Full Article' checked and the above code put in the 'Regular Expression'. How can I fix this?

After fixing the above how can I have the feed bring over links, pictures, and videos?

I'd need to see the feed to know if the regex you're using is correct for not...

As for what it brings over... at the moment, only images.

The feeds I been trying have been like 15 different ones all only bring the info not the whole story.

Here is one for instance that I been fighting with:
CNET   (there was a few on cnet like computer reviews and such)


Is there anywhere that I can look to get info on which regular expression I should be using for a particular site?

Did you read my regular expression tutorial?  You really won't find any information other than that, except for the generals of creating regular expressions.

You can't use the one I use... the purpose of the tutorial is to show you how to create one for your specific feed.

How do I find the HTML source?

When you are on the page of an aticle you want the feed from...Right Click/View Source....and search for the <div=??> above where the article/reivew starts. Whatever that DIV is replace it with the DIV used in the example that was provided in the Regular Expressions tutorial

EXAMPLE: Let's say you find a DIV that is says <div=mainstory>

Then use the following as the Regular Expression in the Mod Settings

~<div id="mainstory">(.*)</div>~siU

If you can't get it post the link of the RSS Feed you want and I'll take a look.

I keep trying over and over .... the reg expression i get from the sources ... keep pulling either the discription or parts of what is in the topic ... not EVERYTHING. Maybe you guys can solve this one and show me how you found it.

Feed url for CNET Reviews (Computer Systems)

Chit Chat, I messed around with this feed quite a bit and it seems it might be impossible to retrieve the full article. Like you said you can get the Product info, the gallery, the editors review etc but they are all broken up into seperate DIV's instead of a single DIV so it's only pulling one area.

Try finding a different feed source instead of CNET and see if you can find something that's wrapped up in 1 DIV.

Chit-Chat ChatterBox Boss

I will try thanks!

Thanks for the great mod! Works fine on 2.0 RC1-1 :D

But I got a question.. Is there a way to prevent rss feeder posts to appear in the "recent posts" list?
