News Fetching Issues

[dhaliwal]

Hi Everyone

I made a DB of almost 2000 Feeds. Now to import them, it needs around 5 - 6 hours. At times my PC halts, or some internet issue, or timeout and the script stops.

Please help me with some Specific URL i could use in order to start fetching from some specific FEED ID

Say, in case, i have done it for first 700 feeds, i would like to start next time from 701

i used

http://www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?r=1&ID=701
but it hasnt helped.


Thanks a lot

If you see the Newstopica 3.0.2 release thread, you can import each category. That would be the only method I know to break up the import into smaller peices.

thanks a lot david. i will check the same.
I was thinking of some option based on feed Id, however, this is also good

[dhaliwal]

AS per your suggestion

If the variable is "?c=12", then the script imports all RSS Feeds from the category with the ID of "12" (this means that all RSS Feeds assigned to this category will be imported).

i used it, but it didnt work

i used

www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?c=17 (http://www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?c=17)


What i noticed that

www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?c=17 (http://www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?c=17)
and
www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?c=18 (http://www.site.com/admin/rss_import_feeds.php?c=17)

Both we having the same output. The feeds that were invalid in one, were in-valid at the same number in other, so i concluded that there was no change in both commands.

Did you update your database (install script) and also update your admin template files?
