Sorry, we left this out of instructions.

You need to go to your domain: /admincp/import.php

If you want auto updating content you'll want to run it :) nightly OR open it up and look for where it says fastfreemedia.com/export_full.php and change that to fastfreemedia.com/export.php and run it hourly ;) this will just grab the last 50 items added and is intended for people who want to scan very frequently for updates.

when you import do you keep what you have on the site now? example if i have 100 and i run the import script do get an extra 50 or do i have a set amount everytime?

Yeah good question steve, I assume 50 more are added at midnight or something?

A little confused lol.

If I create a cron job to run admincp/import.php at midnight will I get duplicate videos or fresh videos, I changed export_full to export in import.php

Current content stays... We have something setup in import.php to run a query to check to see the the Name of the video exists already AND we have a MySQL index setup to doublecheck.

As long as you guys don't change the names of the video's you shouldn't get duplicate content.

Since our end is setup sorta the same way... From time to time a duplicate can slip by is. If you simply report the duplicate to is we'll remove the last one added ;)

This system is NOT foolproof so some can slip through. We'll do our best to fix them as soon as somethings reported though. If video 1 is called Pizza Hut Commercial with Jessica Simpson and vdeo 2 is call Jessica Simpson Pizza Hut Commercial it is possible to get into the DB a second time. We do our best to watch for duplicates but we're not perfect ;)

OK, I'll run it manually every day and half. Afterall it is free :)

I just realized... the way that I run crontabs on my system is to use lynx to simply open the file. This can't happen on a password protected directory... Anybody wanna post a php -example ? I can't think of it right now.

I can intgrate a simple log-in script to the admin panel sections

please PM me if you would like me to help in this
