I have setup a number of feeds to be imported (as well as setting up the Fb, Twitter, and LinkedIn accounts, currently turned off in EasyBlog). I have tested the feeds manually, they all work fine, then I deleted the posts (from Trash as well) and tried using the script to initiate a cron job test (i.e. pasted the script straight into the browser. I get the following errors and nothing imports to the easyblog system:

{"email_import":{"status":"","type":"","message":""},"twitter_import":{"status":200,"type":"info","message":"No Twitter accounts associated on the site. Skipping this"},"scheduler_publish":{"status":200,"type":"info","message":"No scheduled posts to process currently."},"scheduler_unpublish":{"status":200,"type":"success","message":"Executed query to process posts to be unpublished."}}
Hello Austrin,

Before you try the cronjob test, Have you clear all the entries in #_easyblog_feeds_history table? This is because once you have imported the feed, it will generate the record in this table. Next time you try to import, Easyblog will check this table whether the item is already imported or not.

Hello Austrin,

Can you provide us your backend and FTP access and phpmyadmin so we can have a better look on your issue here?

Hello Autrin,

I've created a test feed importer to test the cron issue. I've run this URL http://yoursite.org/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cronfeed and the feed get imported correctly: http://screencast.com/t/SUZhJmLrr3tA Did I missed anything?

yes...seemed to work. but the other feed which was left published did not import anything, and I know there are records to import.
specifically what did the error message mean? can you advise what this means please:

{"email_import":{"status":"","type":"","message":""},"twitter_import":{"status":200,"type":"info","message":"No Twitter accounts associated on the site. Skipping this"},"scheduler_publish":{"status":200,"type":"info","message":"No scheduled posts to process currently."},"scheduler_unpublish":{"status":200,"type":"success","message":"Executed query to process posts to be unpublished."}}

Hello Austrin,

This is actually not an error message. It is to notify you the results of all cron task in JSON form. If you tried to beautify this JSON string, you will get a better view: http://screencast.com/t/CrQQ91ejXt3M

By the way, for your cron URL used to import feed, do you use this URL: http://yoursite.org/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cronfeed ? or task=cron?
