    hi,
    i’m just testing lilina and i’m very happy with it :)
    what do you think about categories for the different feeds ?
    so you can say all feeds or just feeds from a specific category.

    regards,
    toadward

    I noticed your header:
    cat /dev/brain | grep interesting > /log

    And I just wanted to say that you should “>>” to /log :)

    I’ve now got it setup in a VERY beta form over at Bend Blogs. I basically removed all the javascript stuff and marking stuff (as I could never get it to work right) and made it so an excerpt shows all the time. But what I’ve found is that many excerpts are actually the full entries, so I’ve used a smart trim function to get things down to a smaller size. Before I run that, however, I run a strip_tags($summary); function on it so that all the HTML is removed (as there were some DIV/span tags in some of those feeds that was really screwing things up.

    I also found that most LiveJournal feeds don’t have a title, so I made it so that if there’s no title, it takes the first 25 characters and throws that up there as the title, using the smart_trim function again.

    A couple feature requests:
    1) Ability to setup a cron job to download the feeds hourly.
    2) A combined RSS feed created from the downloaded feeds.

    Otherwise, keep it up! I’ll be playing with this some more, and if I come across some good ideas, I’ll be sharing.

    OK, couple more requests:

    1) An easy way to sort the “Sources” list
    2) Ability to store more fields in with RSS feeds (or at least customize what is stored, as some of the RSS feeds I’m using have oddball site names).

    Just a quick note to say that I just installed Lilina and I really enjoy it. I get more work done now because of it!

  • Please help…
    Well I have installed lilina following all the instructions and tried to run it but got this error:
    ERROR: cache/ dir is not writable!
    And when I look at the files on the server I can’t even see anything called cache/ – where should I look for it even??

    I’m getting the mimetype error as well using PHP Version: 4.3.10 (Zend: 1.3.0).

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mime_content_type() in /lib.php on line 133

    It happens every time I upload a favicon. The only icons that show up are the ones that came in the tarball. Any ideas what’s causing this? Also, when I hit the “fetch” link nothing happens…
    Great hack by the way…

    I have exactly the same problem as #15

  • sk

    I have 2 RSS feeds that both contain the same story – this causes lilina to get confused and only one of them is expanded in the UI when Iexpand all stories.

    http://www.rediff.com/rss/iycurss.xml

    Both these feeds cotain a story called: Web content developers needed

    (sorry for bad english)
    Thank’s for this software,

    I can’t add new rss/atom.
    I get again the login/pass page, then I come back to the edit page, but nothing has changed.
    I used the french freetelecom as web hosting.
    I have seen it worked by others users of this web hosting.

  • Toco

    Great Idea, Great Software. Thanks!

    Yep, I have the same problem than Sev. After logging in I try to add or delete a feed and then I get back to Login. Logging in again, nothing has changed. (but I have a different hoster than Sev)
