FREECONTENT 3.0
A great module by wjue,
Holds a lot of potential. I have not publically activated on our site yet because I am unsure of how to present it. That is to say I want to make it even more user friendly for my site...Freecontent works best when retrieving hadlines from news/blogger sites.

Here are my suggestions and what I am trying to work on...
-----
1)being able to set up the amount of headlines retrieved from a site, the current default # is ten.

2)Having one more block....for headlines...

3)And this...(Im just not sure how to do it, or if even feezible with the way this module functions.) Setting at least 2 Urls to be defualt for headline retrieval
So that you can always have the latest headlines from a certain site in a block?!
-------
If anyone has suggestions on doing this please share your thoughts here...

Also: If anyone is having problems setting up cURL to work with PHP on IIS/Windows system....then try visiting this fellow XOOPS site...jctsup's IIS RESOURCES
---
The group there helped us with specific problems pertaining to setting up cURL to be enabled via IIS etc. And we now have FREECONTENT functioning....

-Cheers!

DobePhat,

The amount of headlines retrieved from a site is a config variable, config.php file round line 42

// maximum number of stories in Digest Mode
$fc_digest_max_stories = 15;

I am also thingking about webdegist content blocks' enhencement.

ah great thank you!

If we were to make/add a another block...would it be all weird? The reason I ask is because for instance I could duplicate the magin news block...but that would only give me two result boxes with sthe same results right?

Anyways,
Really appreciate this module...it demonstrates just how great PHP can be...
Looking forward to eventually utilizing it publically on our site!
