content grabber

[dehamilton]

I just purchased and installed Content Solution and have tried to pull content into it but with no success.  When I enter the keyword and go through the process it will show the first article from the article directory I am querying but then it will just stick there while the progress bar is moving - and it never brings in any content - even if I let it go for hours.

I thought maybe it was a firewall issue but I turned that off and still had the same problem.  Then I thought it might be a Firefox problem so I tried it in Internet Explorer - but with no success.

What am I doing wrong?  I changed the permissions and installed according to the book and everything seemed to go well.  But I am still in my trial period and if I can't make it work I certainly do not want to pay the remainder.  Can anyone help?  Thanks.

Omar has a fix for that problem, I had the same trouble and it turns out it's a host problem.  Send him an email.  It's an easy fix and CS is a good product.

Hi
Jeff Heath here and I was having the same problem and I looked through the posts and found a patch Omar posted.  I just emailed it to you.  It is very easy to install with FTP.
Enjoy.... it works like a charm.

I want to know ... if any one is having problems with the rss feeds the content solution produces.  I finally got blog solution to post one and it only shows 2 sentences and the link does not reveal the whole article.  Is any one else having this problem??

On BS blog pages are usually just article snippets. To see whole article you need to cick a title and go to the post page. If on the post page is also just couple senetnces, that is what the feed has. Check how many sentences you set for CS to output in the feed. BS will only post what exist in the feed.
