Wpematico not creating posts properly? (3 posts)

    Hi!
    I have installed the WPeMatico and I don't think that it is creating posts properly. I have WPeMatico installed on 'Server A" and it is pulling feeds and creating posts properly. However, I also have the "Syndicate Out" plugin installed on "Server A" and it is supposed to push out posts to "Server B," but doesn't.
    I do not have this problem with WP-O-Matic running on "Server A" and pushingthe feeds out to "Server B." WPeMatico also works fine on "Server B."
    FeedWordPress also works properly in the same scenario, but I would rather use WPeMatico since FeedWordPress is a CPU hog and WP-O-Matic is no longer supported.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Brian,

    I also have a problem at the moment with WPeMatico which might be related to your issue: when a WPeMatico run is triggered by cron, WPeMatico actually creates the posts, but they don't show up on the Website (and also not in the backend).

    I investigated this problem a bit and found, that the newly created posts have no publish date set in the wp_posts table.

    mysql> select id,post_date,post_title from wp_posts order by id desc limit 30;
    +------+---------------------+---------------------------------+
    | id | post_date | post_title
    +------+---------------------+---------------------------------+

    I haven't yet found a reason why that happens, but maybe it helps you (or someone else) to discover the problem.

    I have a hunch that it is related to a bug in WPML, but I can't say for sure yet...

    Best,
    Lukas, also Ph.D. :-)

    noticed the same issue on one host where WPeMatico is set up to use a real cron job, instead of the pseudo cron provided by WP.
