Hi, I hope there is a simple fix for this as it seems I am blatently missing something…

So I imported a feed from youtube fine, however I wanted to create a new category and move the posts from this youtube feed to that. So I deleted all the currently importent feeds and changed the category of the feed in the social feed plug in to my new category (sub of video) and now none of the posts will show not only in the front end but they will not create new articles in the back end either. Is this because they have already been imported once an you can not import twice?

I even tried deleting the feed in the social feed plug in and created a new one and still no joy.

any help would be appreciated as I am sure I am missing something really simple!!

many thanks.

hi, i posted this this morning and just re-read it and it doesn’t make a lot of sense… below is,I hope, a more concise explanation of my problem:

– Created a profile in the social feed plugin from youtube that imported fine to the default category “video”.
– I wanted to create a sub category under video and move these imported videos so i deleted the profile (and articles that had already imported to “video” category) and created a new one for the correct category.
– Now the social plugin will only import new videos (or older ones if i increase the import limit) from the youtube feed and won’t re-import the ones i deleted.
– how do i get around this, i am assuming that it is a problem because the profile had already imported the feed and it wont import a video twice?

i hope that simplifies my problem for anyone who is able to help.

many thanks.

Me too. It gets the new feeds, but I can’t find any way to make it go back and re-dig up all the old ones it had when I deleted the articles they made.

uhmm once you had “delete” the articles (select articles and then click on trash icon) -> need to go to article manager and then in the “select status” combobox select the “trashed” option, it will show you the “trashed” ones. You have to select again the trashed articles on the list to delete them and click on empty trash icon. it will really deleted the articles. After that you can re-run the social feed plugin to save the new articles in the new category.

cheers.

Yes, you need also delete articles in trash. Because when import data, we have a script to check if the post is already imported then it will be skiped to avoid duplicate items.

I am doing all this:

“need to go to article manager and then in the “select status” combobox select the “trashed” option, it will show you the “trashed” ones. You have to select again the trashed articles on the list to delete them and click on empty trash icon. it will really deleted the articles. After that you can re-run the social feed plugin to save the new articles in the new category.”

but the articles will not delete!! This, in turn keeps me from being able to get control of this process.

Suggestions? Anybody?

Did you tick the check all box then empty trash? If the articles won’t delete despite having done that. You might have a database/permission issue.

Try downloading Admin Tools plugin from here
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/access-a-security/site-security/site-protection/14087

After installing, you will find Admin Tools under Component as a link. Took me a headache to find it >_> You can then fix your folder permissions from there with just one click. It’s risk free. But if that still doesn’t work, then you may need to repair and optimize table. The option is that too. This however, do at your own risk though, nothing is guarantee, though it shouldn’t damage anything.

Thank you for the suggestion! I will try this.

This didn’t work either. And, yes, I selected all 800+ files by checking the “select all” checkbox and then selected “empty trash”. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

Hello Digartco,

If you can not remove items from trash, please try to update ‘access level’ for those items before delete them.
E.g: select ‘Registered’ under ‘Set Access Level’ select box as attach image
