Mikro is not a module, it's a component. You just need to create menu item (link) that points to this component.

I'm trying to setup mikro for a second time, on another site. This time, i have set to grab content from a RSS feed, but it doesn't work for me.

In a first attempt, it grabbed the content but it showed all the article's content, even if i have set  "Message characters limit" to 150. Isn't this setting/limit effective for Mikro working with the use of RSS feeds?

After that, i decided to delete all the articles and start over the process. But now it doesn't work at all. No content shows up  Ι'm providing the "Feed URL" as it should and besides that i have defined the following settings:

- Frontpage > source:all  (i have also tried source:rss)
- Collector probability: I even tried to raise the price, since the site is locked.
- Source >: RSS: Yes
- Update frequency: 15min

The only thing i can think of is... if this is a file/folder Chmod issue (?)

The characters limit works only for user posts.

You can see Mikro collector debug information like that:
Login as admin and go to mikro frontpage. Type ?debug=1 in the url to force Collector to run and see the debug information.
http://www.example.com/mikro/?debug=1

You can also clear Mikro time lock. Open file components/com_mikro/includes/timer.php and set all timers to 0. This will force Mikro to collect fresh data.

$lastcheck = array(
    't1' => 0,
    't2' => 0,
    etc...
);

I have forced the Collector to run and beyond others:

frequency: 900
imported: 0
error: 0
message: No new items found in remote source

As for the time clock, all timers are already set to 0

[datahell]

The collector fetches articles from 1 source per time. Refresh the page to make it go to the second source, and then refresh again for the third, etc. If there are no new articles on the remote source it fetches nothing. If it can't parse the source then there is something wrong with the feed. Copy paste its url in your browser to see the feed, does it look ok? You can send me the url with a personal message of you like.

Something very strange happened a moment ago, regarding Mikro. While I was going to post something, due to a storm... we had a power outage for 1-2 seconds. The PC did a reboot and after that  I started the process again. BUT when i clicked the button to write the article again, i found the previous one, as it was before the power outage.

How did this happen?

[datahell]

If you use Firefox (I dont know for Chrome) then if firefox ends unexpected when you re-open it it opens everything as you had it before the browser termination.

[rentasite]

Yeap Firefox. It does re-open every window when an unexpected shutdown occurs. But i did not expect to "hold" the data also! Great!

Hello
I have posted menu blogs in the past months, but today i was trying and: ERROR: Post failed!
After many tests I noticed, that if I switch off the SSL option than i can post successfully new posts. If I switch on again it will not be possible to post. I have some time that i have installed the SSL certificate and it seems to be a kind of conflict...

Thanks

[datahell]

When SSL switch is ON then the form is submitted on the HTTPS url. Certificates breaks when the pages contain non-secure elements. I don't know anything about your site so I can't tell more.
