Feed from external RSS is broken in 4

[davewinfield]

Hi All,

I'm experimenting with importing an RSS feed from an external blog to several forums (4.x and 3.x) with mixed results..

3.x works just fine but 4.0 truncates the feed...

Thanks for the reply Wayne,

I have a dedicated Linux server, there is no issue with using capital letters in extensions.

I just tested again... and now nothing is failing.....

This is bizarre!

Uploading a large jpg as an attachment fails if the suffix is in uppercase (JPG), but is fine and resizes if jpg is lowercase????? I've tested with the same image renaming...

Thanks for the reply..

So, no incentive for me to upgrade early...

Gives me a little time to check 4.0 out and see if I stick with VB at least

[davewinfield]

Many apologies if this has been covered already, but I can't find a thread which directly answers this...

I own a couple of active 3.x licenses which both expire in January next year....

[davewinfield]

Thanks Lats,

It looks like this may be the best way forward, I'll experiment a little!

Thanks Carrie,

Unfortunately I'm *NOT* getting the correct members receiving the email.

Thanks for the reply!

Cheers,
Dave

[davewinfield]

True!!

Let me explain the scenario and maybe it will make it easier to find me a solution!

I have a group ("Verified") of users who have special priveleges and areas....

[davewinfield]

Is there any way to send a bulk Email to users who are NOT in a specific usergroup please?

Thanks,
Dave

[davewinfield]

Got it sorted I think.. ImpEx did the trick..

Thanks for your suggestions.

OK, an update..

The problem is definitely in the database..

I just imported a data dump into a working, test copy, which immediately shows identical symptoms..

My...

[davewinfield]

Thank you for the quick response!

This is set to yes..

The dropdown box style selection box appears on each page, and you can select any of the available styles, but there is...

[davewinfield]

Hi all,
I'm setting up a new forum and have stumbled across a difficulty..

I have installed two (free) Styles, which appear to work just fine if I set either as the default Style....

[davewinfield]

I have the same problem...

[davewinfield]

OK Jake, will do.. thanks!...

[davewinfield]

I have a whole years worth of events to enter into my calendar.

I can get them into CSV format easily enough.

I have exported my current vbevents file, and was hoping to set...

[davewinfield]

Did you ever get this going?

How did you calculate the dates?
