So, I’m running WP-o-Matic 1.0RC1-9 and I have it importing a single feed every hour–the catch is, it doesn’t notice when it’s already imported the posts from a feed, so I end up with the same ten posts on my site over and over if I leave the campaign active.
This is a great plugin otherwise, though. I hope this is just stupid oversight on my part and is easily fixed. If not, I’m surprised no one else is complaining about it. Thanks for any help you can give!

I have the plugin installed and running, it works except for the auto part. I can manually update and get new news, but the Next campaigns to Process days shows 2519, instead of the correct number. I have it set to update ever day. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Yes,
One thing is even though I have added the cron job, it does nto executed and when I try to do it manually, it just hangs and nothing comes up. COuple of new posts are added, but nothing beyond that. A lot of times posts are duplicated too…

Hi guillermo
I installed the plugin but i am having some problems with it. Everytime it try to fetch the feed, It hangs and then kills the database. The feed url’s are fine as beta versions were working fine with it… Any ideas how i can fix this?
Thanks

Hi,
Great work!
Is it possible (for the future) to add the use of keywords?
so it can fetch the feeds and post only the results based on our keywords

Hi, I’m running tests on a local IIS 5.0 server with PHP 4. Caching does not work for me either. In my case, it seems to be an issue with the file name being created as opposed to permissions. Here’s what file mon tells me :
11875 11:57:22 php.exe:2044 CREATE C:\_FILES\ALBERTO\webserver\tests\WordPress\wp-content\plugins\wp-o-matic\cache\b0776_2007_09_15t141351_450×290_us_palestinians_israel_prisoners.jpg?x=130&y=83&sig=XpXDnv6P5ODwys6YHvWAxw– NAME INVALID Options: OverwriteIf Access: 00120196
Great plug-in, by the way!

Really looking forward to SlideList 2, I would love any version of it (I’m only using it horizontally), good luck with wp-o-matic, sounds impressive.

Any word on SlideList 2?
I know you’re extremely busy, but an ETA would be cool.

checed feed url ok,but submit say:

how can i du

I think it just happens with the initial fetching because of the huge numbers of posts involved - if I turn on image caching after getting the initial set of posts, it does appear to be caching images correctly for subsequent posts.
It is still a little annoying to not have all the initial posts cached, but this is understandable. Perhaps there could be some way to limit it initially to a certain number of posts (10, for instance?)

Works well for me, but for some reason turning on image caching hangs it. Without caching, posts are fetched fine, but images are leeching from original servers which is sooo slow. If the image thing could be fixed, I would donate for this wonderful plugin, I promise!!!
btw; my cache directory seems to be set up correctly, permissions wise. When i look inside it, its even downloaded the images it seems…. but the plugin is still crashing.

@Guillermo Do you have a RSS feed for comments? Maybe a small forum or wiki would help organize bugs, releases, etc. ?

Great plugin!
Wondering: Have been trying to find out how to set the scheduling for, say an update of the feeds every 30 minutes. Want wordpress to handle this, as I don’t have access to crontab.
What do I have to fill into the d h m boxes?
thx Daniel

OR, what would reallly be helpful is if you moved the category selection to the feed input page, so they can be added on a per-feed basis instead of per-campaign.

Just a few suggestions (great plugin btw….)
global rewrite - cause there’s a few rewrites that I’m doing on every feed, would be nice to just put it in once… but damn, I guess it’s not bad that we have to do *something*
