What SMF version are you using?

If you can give me the URL of a known good xml source I will set up a test forum and try to to use 2.2 again, however at this point it does not appear to be working on my system.

I have problem after upgrade this mod. In error log see "8: Undefined offset: 1" in Subs-RSS2.php. Line 407.

I am trying to uninstall this mode but I can't remove it from scheduled tasks. How to remove the cron jobs that it set?

I notice that this was asked early on in the thread, but never answered (so far as I can tell):

How hard would it be to, uh, mod the mod so that it posts feed updates as posts to a single specified thread, instead of multiple threads?

vbgamer45 · July 13, 2010, 08:19:53 PM

Possible to do would require php coding to do so.

supercarp · July 13, 2010, 08:24:09 PM

although i know a bit of php, this is way outside my scope. oh well! thanks for the response.

Hi Everyone,

I searched and searched, but NOBODY seems to be having the problem I'm having with this AWESOME Mod. Other than this issue, my SMS 1.1.11 with Feed Poster 2.1 is working PERFECTLY.

I'd LOVE to leave the HTML ON (it looks AWESOME, with photos and everything), but it comes into the site's message WITHOUT the required tags in order to display HTML properly in the message. I'm having to manually go in to each message and add the tags, and that sort of defeats the purpose of having a Bot add news items as posts.

Can anyone suggest something simple I can do to automate this, or fix this somehow?

Thanks so much in advance for your kind assistance!

Take Care,
Erik

I am having the same problem! thanks quadrabay! I am trying to get it so it posts the comic of the day rss but it gives me all this nonsense.

quadrabay · July 17, 2010, 03:14:15 PM

Hi GarfieldP,

You can fix it manually if you like by simply adding (Left Bracket)html and (Right Bracket, Slash) html to the beginning and end of the HTML code you'd like to correct. Also, you have to enable HTML in permissions, and the garbagey code will magically transform into beautiful posts. (the board won't show the actual brackets...)

I'd LOVE a way to either add these two tags automatically, or some other (hopefully simple) way to accomplish this.

Good Luck,
Erik

GarfieldP · July 17, 2010, 03:28:17 PM

thanks man! I really appreciate it! I am also interested in a automatic tag adder

I was wondering if you could add a feature to embed the RSS feed into a iframe so it displays the page where it came from, that would be much better to represent the RSS feed as a whole and be able to see the width/height of it.

vbgamer45 · July 22, 2010, 10:51:06 AM

Probably not something I would do

Just installed this Mod and like it a lot, but I'm having the same issue as quadrabay. (SMF 2.0 RC3)
The HTML comes through as raw code so each post must be edited to insert the html tags before it displays correctly. For one or two feeds that's not a huge deal, but for three or more it starts to be a bit of work.
Is there a fix that can be applied to resolve this?
I've un-checked the 'HTML Enabled' for now to see how that looks.

Thanks... Ken.

Check quadrabay post a couple posts up

Sorry if I'm not understanding the post, but I'm already doing that... adding the html tags manually after the feed is posted.

EDIT: Spelling.

InfoMax · July 23, 2010, 11:47:00 PM

When you add a feed if I get the error:

XML error: mismatched tag at line 20

The functions fsockopen, fopen, curl are enabled.
Nor does the cronjobs.
Help Please!

vbgamer45 · July 23, 2010, 11:50:18 PM

That's a bad feed not proper xml so it can't be used.

quadrabay · July 24, 2010, 12:22:26 PM

Thanks for the responses VBGamer,

I'm wondering if there is any part of your Mod, a template (or something) that could simply be edited to both add the HTML tags before and after HTML RSS Posts, as well as change the way the posts look coming in a bit.

I tried AutoBBC to add the tags "automagically" to all my postings on a test board, and it failed. Obviously, Feed Poster must bypass my user posting settings. Right now I've added a BBC button for the HTML tags, so at least now I only need to select the code and hit one button, then save - lather, rinse, repeat.

Any ideas or help you could offer would be very appreciated!

Thanks for the amazing SMF MOD!

Take Care,
Erik
