News site out of date

[brian]

The "lates news formthe forge" module on news.j.org is shows news items from http://dev.joomla.org/content/blogcategory/17/72/

But the latest news is from 17th November

Is there a script broken?

[brad]

I think human error or more likely time constraints are the cause of this We had quite a few weeks of forge issues, and this is something that may have been held up.

BTW Tonie is away so we're doing our best to take care of the things that he used to

[brian]

It was just a fyi nothingmore

[brad]

S'ok, it's floating around somewhere in my brain now.

[Predator]

Maybe you need to clean your cache.

[brian]

I was in an internet cafe but I can confirm it is ok now

[brian]

Not been updated sine your last post Marko. Is it still  a manual process someone forgot to do?

Yes i forgot it

Maybe you could share the job with someone to prevent this happening and to cover for illness etc

Good idea as it also toke ages to get the news from the forge via SOAP.

[Predator]

OK updated

[brian]

It is for me now as wel lbut it definitley was not at the time of writing. wierd

Actually, once MegaJustice "approved" it last night, < http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,136073 >, then your news was immediately visible in the "Latest News" Module. Prior to that time, your news was listed on the news page, but not in the module at the top of the page. So, I'm as confused as you are, Brian.

If you are looking for help, I am happy to help (provided it is easy enough for a trained monkey to do). I am not as smart as you are Marko or Tonie or Brad. But if there are just a set of steps to follow, I would be more than happy to do this a couple of times each day if it helps you. Your time is FAR BETTER invested in coding.

Thanks for all you do!

Don't mixed the news submition on the news site which the forge news, they are 2 different kind of news.

[AmyStephen]

Marko -

I think you are right, I am confused.

I attached a picture of the news page I was talking about < http://www.joomla.org/content/blogcategory/0/33/ >.

After you did your update, Brian's News Item was listed by the #1 in the picture, but, it was not listed in the module by the #2.

Then, once MegaJustice said he approved the news item, Brian's Item was listed by the #2 in the picture.

Are those two different sources of news?

Thanks!
Amy

[Predator]

Yes

#1 is what you submit on the news site
#2 is what we track via SOAP from the forge

[brian]

Its ok Marko I understood the difference but as I said at the time of writing it wasnt showing in the SOAP feed

[Predator]

The news are from the forge are after i did a refresh available here http://dev.joomla.org/content/blogcategory/17/72/ without delay, the module on the news site is cached and will refresh after an hour normally.

[Predator]

Could you discuss this in the related M&M Forum as we here only discuss technic related stuff, thanks in advance.

[brian]

Can you split the posts then please and move them as you see fit

[Predator]

Done
