This is a nice system - it works really good fresh out the box and can be your #1 rss or content solution.

The Feedgator part of this is a bit troubled though... First you might have a little bit of a time finding out where to download a version. - ijoomla.com has a free download.

Then you might find that the system is buggy as a roach motel. When you add a new feed and try to delete - NOPE. When you try and save the config - NOPE. This sounds like a chmod issue doesnt it... Not the case. I am working to solve the known bugs and will post anything I find here.

The system does though work. You can have a massive amount of feeds coming into your site via the Feedme bridge with Feedgator.

The one big drawback I can see at the moment is the 3rd party elements that you might be using in your content... such as comments and etc - they dont seem to function as of yet.

The price itself is kind of steep for this com and to some it might not be worth it. If you need this type of system it's worth every penny. If you know what your doing - even better - this could be used for multiple purposes!

I did find the link on this forum to the 0.93a version of feedgator now i am able to save and do the needed edits!

woo hoo!

Hi Jay,

I picked up the FeedGator project so you might be happy to know that it is being continued.
The project page is here:

You can download the latest public release 0.96 here:

I have a new version running using the SimplePie parser but I still need to iron out a few wrinkles to be able to use it under PHP5.x.x
With a little luck I'll be able to release it publicly in the next two weeks.

Rembo

FANTASTICO!
