Under the “Feed to Posts” heading, in the “per fetch” selection category, there is a drop-down box limit of 300 feeds per fetch.

I assumed this would be a limit to the number of RSS reeds which could be added to this plug-in…recent forum activity suggests otherwise.

Could the plug-in author, definitely, tell us if there are any known limitations to either the plug-in or WP as regards the mumber of allowable feeds….

And if there is no limit, then what about the “300” limit that can be fetched at any time…? Can that just be ignored?

thanks

sswells, looks like you are going to have your hands full when you wake up today.

worked perfectly, thanks!

I think that I figured our the problem…I had activated a plug-in called relevasse (indexing plugin) for indexing the posts via the WP search widget. When I deleted that plugin, everything went back to normal.

issue resolved, thank you Alan for all of your hard work. Not every day we WP newbies can get a BS/PhD/songwriter/ZenNinja to help us with things.

I have about 20 feed being fetched, 3 at a time, with a 300-count feed set up.

The posts are on auto-delete, three day delete period. I have looked thru these posts and there are not duplicate posts.

I am using WPenging as a hosting company, I emailed them your article about changing the wp-config file. They did that, then they installed the WP plugin Simple Cron to do a two-minute update, over-riding the default 10-minite update. I am following your advice and have just disabled the plugin to see if it was causing the problem.

The feeds I am getting are the major news organizations.

If the problem does not persist, I will just give up on the two-minute goal for feeds and stick with the ten minute cron.

The problem, so far as I could tell, was that the update was creating a browser refresh automatically, taking the users screen to the newest post, but as the user continued to click “back” in time, the user, unknown to him, had actually been put “forward” in time by the browser. That is my guess. Trying to duplicate the behavior again.

thanks for your trouble.

Thank you (both of you) for the advice. I use WPengine for hosting and as it turns out, they do automated daily backups. The backed up my site to the previous unmodified version within about 5 minutes. So that was great. However, that led me to research this a bit…the fact that exray is built on Twitter Bootstap is, apparently, what made the fix problematic- the files are in different places than they normally would be, and are not as accessible as they normally might be in a non-bootstrap environment…and by saying that, I say it as someone who is not familiar with boostrap, so to me, it was more of a firewall to getting to the code I needed. that being said, I have now investigated twitter bootstrap more carefully, read some tutorials, and am convinced it is a great choice for the developer to have used it, but it means I need to learn how it works to be able to go in and make some of the changes I was already capable of making in other themes. Great theme Septian, I love it, and I plan to use it permanently….keep up the good work.
