Dear all,

i just purchaced the feep2post Professional edition and just found from my hosting that cronjob isn't supported in their platform. (IT Help Desk support answer: I am sorry, Cron Job is not compatible with our hosting structure)

Is there another way to do that?To add automatic articles into my site?

Hi! Welcome to the forum

You can use the mod_timedfetch module jointly with cronjob, you must locate the cronjob's files in a public_html folder and, from  mod_timedfetch set the url of the cronjob.php file.
You must configure it to execute from 2 hours or more (not less) because the articles creation is a little bit slower
At your service for any other query!

Hi! Sorry for the delay on answering

Curl is an extension for PHP. if your hosting company, has it avaiable, is better to use it instead of Fopen.

On file.txt file, all the updated by cronjob.php will be saved (besides  being automatically created the articles obtained from feed) according to the option's configuration as shown as follows:

Storage type: as log, overwrite, ignore it's up to your choice, you can save all the updated as a log (one under the other), overwrite (obtaining always the last update) or ignore (discard all)

Store what? Complete storage of the updated, or just save a chunk

 Regards
