For some reason wprobot is not posting my rss feeds.
It might be because i deleted a couple of categories from my blog,
but i doubt it.

The problem is that the date for next post date does not change from
12/31/1969 18:00:00

I added a screen shot of the problem.
I manually forced it to post 2 entries, but the next post date did not change.
But now im thinking about reinstalling my database from my backup.
Im using wprobot 2.05.

maybe somone can help with this issue.

thanks

I know the app shows that date when there's no posts in a given node or rss feed pulled and published. Is there any published content from those feeds?

pls see the attached pic.
I had to manually force it to post 2 times, and it posted-
but the date didnt change.
 
Another thing that may have caused the problem is that-

wprobot is designed to process feeds,etc at 1hr intervals.
so i wanted to see if i can make it post in 30 mins.

So even though there is no option for 30 mins, i changed the
post interval to 0.30 instead of 1. Do you think this could have
caused the problem?

If 1= 1 hour

.30 ≠ 30 minutes

And yes, you can't just invent random times, the script uses intervals of an hour
 
yes, i have figured out as much.
But now i need someone who actually has some
usefull insight on this.

see the thing is, my database is about 50mb, and my phpmyadmin will
only accept about 2mb. So if i don't have to reinstall database that
will be great.
 
So then go and buy the script like you should of and go to their support forum where you can find someone who has "usefull insight" instead of using some crappy nulled outdated version

Fair point and very true - I 100% agree with you.

The issue that is causing your dates to be out is a conflict with another plugin. I had a similar issue with the update V2.11 I had a plugin that was conflicting with WP Robot. I deactivated the offending plugin and waited a couple of hours - WP Robot then corrected the date issue itself.

These things happen sometimes. It's more than likely a plugin conflict but you really should buy the plugin so you can get heir support and updates too.

Ok this might be the problem, even though i dont remember
adding any new plugins on that day.

Thanks for the input.

@Shezboy - do you remember which plugin caused the problem?

TIA :)
 
If you are using Delete duplicate posts plugin, it is the most likely culprit. I upgraded my WPRobot in one of my shezblogs and "Next Post Date" for all my keywords changed to 1970. So I disabled and deleted "Delete Duplicate Posts" plugin, deleted all the keywords and entered them again. This solved the problem.

Hope this helps,
 
your server is busy this is normal...

please delete all keyword and added no busy time..once put words and search 1970 or 1969 in wprobot section , delete all 1970 keyword and add again.
 
Don't delete any keywords or posts and not to wait for hours, just disable the 'delete duplicate posts' plugin and refresh the WPRobot keywords page, it works fine.
 
The delete duplicate posts plugin is a POS and will screw up WP-Robot quite nicely. I have found with my blogs that simply disabling the duplicate posts plugin does NOT fix WP-Robot (for me at least). What I had to do was actually delete all keywords and add them back again. Was a total nightmare as I had over 50 blogs at the time when I realized this problem was occurring.
 
Delete duplicate posts. The other one that sometimes also causes this is MB Ping Optimizer
