Hello,


I am facing this odd issue, I think...
I'm ale to setup a cron job to refresh the RSS feeds, but the link provided by the plugin just generates a 404 page.


The link that shows on the RSSFactory backend panel is;
components/com_rssfactory/helpers/refresh.php?password=xxxxxx

After browsing the website, I found a different link that does not generate the 404 but still doesn't refresh the feeds. This link was;
index.php?option=com_rssfactory&task=refresh&password=xxxxxx


PS;
I've tried with SEF on and SEF off.

Any ideas?

Hello!

The first url is the correct url to use. Please make sure that the file exists on your server [Joomla dir/]components/com_rssfactory/helpers/refresh.php

Found the issue.
For anyone using Akeeba Admin to manage security in their websites, you'll need to generate a new htaccess file, on the configuration of the file, you'll need to add the directory /components/com_rssfactory/helpers/ to the "alow direct access including php files" .

Save and generate the new file.

Sorry for bumping this up but I think I have this problem as well.

I dont have Admin Tools
latest joomla&rss factory
even gave 777 permission the the existing refresh.php
put in this in htaccess:
<Files mysite.com/components/com_rssfactory/helpers/refresh.php>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Files>

The problem is I get 404 and the page keeps loading something forever..and its not refreshing at all:-(
