RSS auto Poster into Forums

[snoopy_inc]

Hi all,

After some searching around the forums i have found that there isnt really an explaination as to how to put up a RSS auto poster onto the forum.  Something that will pull the RSS feed and post that Feed onto the forums under a specific section.

I am assuming it would be mod related but i am inquiring as to.... is there something like this for SMF.... i know for VB it is around.  Seen it in action.

Is there a mod for SMF that does this?  IF so what is it called and if possible do you have the url for it.

Thanks

There is a package that does this at SMF. 

The support for the package will be at SMF, or the package authors website.

Yes, it is called Feedposter.

You have to have fsockopen enabled in your php.ini though.

I was just looking for that Xarcell.. The internet speed at work is like dial up, and with SMF, it's terrible.

i konw what you mean i live in a country where the government thinks dial up is a good thing :S

BTW could you point me in the right direction with the fsockopen function... they talk about it but don't talk about how to write it.
