Paul, Could you ask your hosting guys is there a firewall in place on youside that prevents RSS feeds being pulld from another site, in my case http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/sportonline_uk_edition/northern_ireland/rss.xml I have a plugin on our site that allows news feeds to be pulled in. I know it is working, as I have checked with the CMS guys e107. I keep getting an error cannot connect to host. but the host BBC is fine and their RSS is working. Also the automatic update on the cms cannot check the e107 site for updates, which makes me think that something is blocking an outgoing connection.

Oh and well done and congratulations on the revamp on the site...:1 (52):

No prob. It was a firewall setting as you suspected.
