What Features are missing from the free version ?

I am interesting in this software, however when using the free 1.72 version i have problems testing the News->News Import function. Each time I try this feature, I get the message "Story succesfully added" but I see no imported news.

Before racking my brain around this one I thought I would ask if the News Import function does indeed work with the free 1.72 version ?

Thanks

Mike

I found the problem.

This software needs the following on in the php.ini file.

allow_url_fopen = On

The default is Off in OpenBSD.

Once I turned that on, restart of apache I was good a gold.

Here are my steps.

Login to the administration side

Left hand side under section News
Click News Import - Main Section shows a list of News Sources they are sorted by WebsiteID

For testing I choose Import News next to NTCompatible.com News
New screen is shown.
Hold back: No
Enabled HTML Formating?:No
Enable Icons/Smiles?: Yes
Enable Block Code?: Yes
Source: NTCompatible.com News
Show this news on main site?: Yes
Enabled Comments?: Yes
Teaser Image[upload] : No teaser image

I then click the Send Button
Screen changes to:
Done
Story successfully added

But the story does not get imported, not list of stories etc.

All options should work. Did you checked: Import this news? => Yes
