RSS Syndicate help!!
ok I added a feed
I figured how to add feeds in the control panel, but how do I set the number of entries that are taken from the new feeds, and how do I keep the feeds in their own catagories and out of my main page??
also how do I set up a cron, so the feeds continue to update..
please help!!
thanks,c

You can cause the feeds to update manually, by calling the URL specified in the configuration screen (somthing like index.php?/plugin/aggregator) from any browser.
Cron jobs are different for each provider. If you have ssh access, you may be able to add a cron job using the crontab command, which allows you to edit your crontab file, where you would add a line like this:
To aggregate every day at 2:30AM server time.
Some providers give you control panels that might let you add cron jobs. That's usually much easier. Some providers don't let you do cron at all.
Time to check with your provider.
