Title: Another RSS Feed Post. Help Please
Post by: Shantrivialand on July 22, 2007, 12:21:13 am
Okay, I installed this, went to CNN for a test RSS and was able to get it to feed as a post like I wanted it to.  Only problem is, is that it will display the title of the post correctly, but when you click on the post to read it there is a bunch of script instead of the article.  How do I correct this?
I am not sure how to use the Cron jobs thing, or even what they are so I clicked on the "use fake cron jobs"
I also asked my hosting site to make sure my fsockopen was enabled but they were no help
I wondered if I needed to be on port 80, but have no idea where to get there. 
If someone could please explain to me in elementary language how to do this I would be so grateful.

Okay, I went into my filemanager of my CP of my hosting site and found the cronsrss.php folder.  Now what?

Link to the CNN feed so I can see the scripting that you see

Here is the link. 
Here are my settings and things that may help.
#1 Everytime I want to access the "feed poster" or the "gallery lite" mods from my control panel I have to go into my server setting and click it on English (even though it is already set to English) and click "save".  Once I do this I am able to access these 2 programs which appear under my "server settings" tab.
#2 I have the box checked where it says "use fake cron jobs".  I have my smtp server at 25.  I tried to set it to 80 thinking that might help, but no luck.  I don't know what I am doing wrong.  I appreciate any help.
