WordPress Post Count?

Reported by idyl | February 3rd, 2009 @ 12:35 AM

I have discovered a bug in WP-O-Matic

I have my WordPress permalinks set up to display post count:

Example: http: //example.com/p?=122

When the cron.php file is activated (by automatic cron job on server), it automatically takes up a post slot (even if there is nothing to download).

Example: if the cron.php file is accessed twice, and on the third time downloads an entry, the next post count will be /p?=125. This very quickly runs up the post count as a result of cron.php hits (and not file downloads).

Can I make this correction in the code ... is it something you have to include in future updates?

Best ...

    Just an update ... I turned off the cron job running on the server, and have been doing it manually.

    Each time I activate the cron.php file ... it skips a post count. If the previous post is /p?=223, the next time I activate the cron.php file the next post will be /p?=225. If I am downloading several items, they will all be sequential.

    I am doing this on WordPress 2.7.

    Guillermo ... I believe I fixed the problem!!!

    I had previously installed a plug-in from one of your competitors: "feedwordpress." This requires you to replace two files in the stock WordPress installation: "rss.php" and "rss-functions.php" in the "wp-includes" folder. I believe these two files were causing the skipped post number issue when fetching.

    I have replaced them with the original "rss.php" and "rss-functions.php" files, and everything appears to be working.

    Many thanks for your diligent work on your plug-in. I think SimplePie does a better job at parsing atom feeds (for my needs), which is why I selected WP-o-Matic for my RSS fetching/aggregator.
