System Settings

This sections allows you to set your cron frequency,maximum trackbacks, cron locations,email notifications,user agent string customization, and to request tech support for troubleshooting purposes.

Tech Support Mode
This box should only be checked if tech support requests you to. Once tech support is done providing support, be sure to uncheck this box as the support file is allowed to grow without end while this box is checked!

Time Offset
To make times match your time zone, enter in the offset in hours from the server's time which is shown in parenthesis on the right. Enter negative numbers to subtract time from the server's time.

Posting Timeout
Drops the connection to your blog after this many seconds. Reducing this number can significantly improve posting times. Use carefully, however, as a too-short timeout may cause posting to cease.

blog-poster.php Cron Frequency
This must match the setting you set up for blog-poster.php in your cron setup. See Installation->Cron Job for more details.

Max Trackbacks Per Run
This value is required if you plan to use trackbacks. For more details, please see the section on trackbacks under Projects->Project Configuration.

Cron Locations
This should give you the exact location of the file for your cron job.

Through PHP
In this box, are the cron commands for most servers to call PHP directly. You will need to set your cron up to use PHP with this file. Usually this is done by adding php to the front (e.g. php/home/username/public_html/cf/blog-poster.php.

Using Lynx Browser
In the Using Lynx Browser box, are the cron commands for servers which cannot call PHP directly.

If none of these work for you, then you should contact your host for the proper command to use.

To use pre-caching of RSS and SE feeds, add a cron to run rss-cache.php and/or se-cache.php to run a few minutes before blog-poster.php.

Email Address
This is the email address where Content Farmer Pro™ can send keyword list, data file, and error email notifications.

User-Agent String
Some servers require a particular user-agent string. If set here, then that value will be used; otherwise, Content Farmer Pro™ will use a calculated signature that varies from server-to-server. Enter -1 to disable the user-agent string from being sent.

KW List Email Notifications
Check this box to be notified when a keyword list is reset or runs out of keywords.

Data File Email Notifications
Check this box to be notified when a data file is reset or runs out of posts.
