Walk me thru FeedWordpress

[DangerDave]

I am playing with FWP on a non-adult blog.. and can not get it to work..

This is the second or third time I have tried and everytime it never works as promised...

So am I doing something wrong or is it crappy..

Can someone walk me thru the basics...?

I don't use it much at all, but I do run it on one of my blogs and I've never had any trouble.

Wordpress 2.7 + FeedWordpress 2008.1214

Its pretty flexible in the settings with how you want to do things. What is the problem you are having with it?

[DangerDave]

I have those two BB.. and it went in ok..

but adding a feed.. returns the error..

HTTP request error: Could not open handle for fopen() to (URL)


Having a look around.... I have seen some other people have the error but have not seen a solution..

Installed and now working..
