    This extension works smoothly; however, it seems like it doesn’t constantly update the feed it’s displaying. How do i let it fetch the feed on each refresh/visit? i don’t want my users to see old feed information.

    Your help is much appreciated

    it shouldn’t >constantly< update the feed. it should be caching the results, and updating maybe once an hour, or every few hours. any more than that (i.e., update every minute or something nutty!) is both abusive of the site you are pulling from and starts to impact your own site’s performance (and your host’s server load…).

    there should be a variable somewhere that lets you control the number of seconds/minutes between updates (my CG-FeedRead plugin does it in seconds, but uses math like 60*60*3 to do three hour intervals…).

    -d

    ah! i found it in the aggrss.php file in this line:

    define(RSSCACHE_TIME, 3600);

    Thanks for the inspiring reply man 😉
