setting up EVENTS module?

Submitted by mharizanov on Fri, 07/06/2013 - 13:22

I would like to toy a bit further with the EVENTS module, but I can't seem to get it working. I installed emoncms v5 in a fresh folder on my hosted domain, created a new database for it and copied the files to /modules folder. A new menu "Extras" has appeared. I entered my gmail SMTP setting and set up couple test triggers. However, they don't seem to ever trigger, is there a cron job to setup or anything else that needs to be done so that the events work?

Hi,

until trystan merges in a pull enabling it you will have to apply this patch:

}

to feed_model.php, otherwise the event check won't be triggered when feeds update
