If the settings are not there, please give me your please provide us with the Joomla back end access as well as the FTP access so that I can include it for you.

Thanks:)

Thank you for your reply. I do not have that option in my version of Easyblog.
Can you please email me the required files to update as I have Easyblog on a number of sites and I will need to update them all.

Hello Michael,

This feature is already in the latest EasyBlog. However if you only want to files responsible for this they are,

JOOMLA/administrator/components/com_easyblog/controllers/feeds.php
JOOMLA/administrator/components/com_easyblog/views/feeds/tmpl/form_joomla.php
JOOMLA/administrator/components/com_easyblog/views/feeds/tmpl/form_bootstrap.php
JOOMLA/components/com_easyblog/helpers/feeds.php

Please replace the files attached and you will have this fucntionality too Hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi there,
I've checked my version of easyblog and it says that it's the latest one.

I just uploaded those files and now I get a blank screen. My guess is that there needs to be a database change.

Any suggestions?

Michael

Hello Michael,

Sorry for the late reply. In that case can I take a look at your site? The latest EasyBlog should have this feature built in. Please advice.

Thanks!

My login credentials are attached.

Hello Michael,

Sorry for the late reply. The feed edit page is totally blank as there are some fatal errors. May I have your FTP to debug this? Please advice.

Thanks!

Please find the ftp details attached below.

Hello Michael,

I had already fix your issue, you should have your Feed Amount option in your back end now.

Thanks:)

What was the problem?

Adelene, I'm now getting the following error after your update
Undefined index: success in /var/www/downwind/administrator/templates/isis/html/message.php

I should mention that I suppressed the errors in the admin interface by turning down the error reporting.

Now I have an a couple of more problems.....
1. When I try and execute the RSS feed in Easyblog under the Feed Importer area nothing happens. This renders the "Feed Importer" unusable.
2. On the main Easyblog page it indicates that I have 11 blog entries and 2 tags and yet when I click on the Blog Entries button there are no entries. I think that something has gotten screwed up in one of the indexes

Hello Michael,

It seems that some of your files are in the incorrect path, have you done any changes or hacks to your site besitde the files that adelene gave you? if no, would you allow me to re install easyblog latest for you? rest assured that your setting and data will not be deleted.

Thanks:)

I have only done a complete install. I have not changed anything. You're more than welcome to update to the latest version because I believe that Adelene unwittingly broke a few things in my site......all fixed now though :-)

Hello Michael,

It might be the confusion of the feeds file as they are 2 of them which has different content. It seems like all is ok now.
Please don't hesitate to ask us if you have any more issue or bug fix.

Thanks:)

I'm currently using the following crontabs.
22 6,12 * * * /usr/bin/nice lynx - source "http://downwind.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cronfeed"; > /dev/null
24 6,12 * * * /usr/bin/nice lynx - source "http://downwind.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron"; > /dev/null

I'm finding that the cronfeed one is not working each day. I have to manually reset it. Any thoughts or are their other crontabs that need to be set to pull in feeds?

Thanks!

Hello Micheal

Did you set it up cronjob by following this, please advice?
Link --> http://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/cronjobs/setting-up-cronjobs-for-feed-imports-in-cpanel

Could I have access to your cpanel to take a look at your settings?

Thanks:)

I don't use cpanel. I use a dedicated Linux server and I cut and pasted the above lines from my crontab.

Hello Michael,

So sorry for the delay in getting back to you. You will only need the command

http://downwind.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cronfeed

to run the EasyBlog feed importer. There is no other way to run it automatically. Could you try doing this for the cronfeed instead

*/25 * * * * /usr/bin/nice lynx - source "http://downwind.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cronfeed"; > /dev/null

this runs every 25 minutes Hope this helps.

Thanks!

My problem is that even if I run http://downwind.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cronfeed from my browser the feeds don't update.

Hello Michael,

Sorry for the late reply as it's the weekends. I can't login to chack as you have removed/disabled the user you sent us but when i run the cronfeed URL manually in the browser I get this

>> 3 items migrated from feed "Aviation Jobs"

It seems to be working fine here but can you double check if the blogs are created? If they are not then I will need backend and FTP access to check this out. Please advice.

Thanks!
