    Hi everyone,

    I'm setting on a blog and using the FeedWordPress plugin as part of it, however i'm having major trouble setting up the CRON job for it.

    I'm getting the following error emailed to myself:
    Could not open input file: /home/sxmomtzc/wp-content/update-feeds.php

    I've asked my host and they have said i'm using the correct command for the crom job, but i just cant get it to work.

    If anyone can help it would be great.

    Thanks
    Peter

    Ok i'm still having trouble with this, i've search various forums and wordpress but i just cant get this work.

    I'm willing to pay anyone $20 if they are able to get this to work for myself.

    I'm using the most upto date wordpress and the the plugin is here, my host is UKWSD who have advsied me that cron jobs are available on the server and i have a cron batch job running on a different site which is on the same hosts.

    So if anyone is able to help me set this cron job up, ideally i would like it to run every 12 hours, 6am and 6pm.
    Let me know and i'll pay you $20

    Thanks
    Peter

    Hi - not sure if this helps, but there's an updated plugin that builds on Feedwordpress and WP-Cron - it's called WP-Autoblog, available at

    http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2006/06/06/wp-autoblog-a-syndication-plugin/

    Makes it a lot easier.

    Best wishes.

    It isn't the best of code and plays hell on your ping list. Just a heads up.
