RSS Feed Poster

[vbgamer45]

What is the feed? And how do they appear when posted

[luuuciano]

Can you add a link to that feed?

I am using just one, and it shows images

no... I believe that this feed poster does NOT grab images.

[luuuciano]

ok... I think that this mod uses the description field, and not the content one...

I have images on description fields, and it works great

Try using yahoo feed pipes to change your content to description... or touching the mod code...

OOPS, SORRY!

My mistake... I was finally using RSS Feeder, as this one never posted the latest item (no news at all, just old news)

[bbqsauced]

Ok turns out the previous feed just didn't reference images correctly.  Other feeds seem to work fine.

I did notice, however, that there are definitely a few bugs.  Some monstrosity when trying to grab an image:

Code Select Expand

<div class="template" data-href="[img]http://[img]http://i.imgur.com/kzmwxWQ.jpg[/img][/img]"><img src="[img]http://[img]http://i.imgur.com/kzmwxWQ.jpg[/img][/img]"/></div>

Also, it doesn't seem there is proper character escaping for single quotes.  Anyone know where I can begin hunting to add this in?

Reference feed:

Code Select Expand

This is working good for me. I do see 3 small things I think are bugs but may be as intended. The first two are closely related i think so will cover them together. I will be using my forum to (among other things) promote YouTube channels. I have tested several different feeds such as subscriptionsnew, author, etc. They create a thumbnail and relevant information in a new topic as expected. However, clicking on the thumbnail takes the current page to the video (isn't opening in a new tab) and the source below has no address but does open in a new (about:blank) tab. Is there anyway I could change these two minor issues?

The 3rd minor is I use sidebar menus instead of drop downs when possible. While in the feeder list config. screen it doesn't display just right. Some of the configuration information is off to the right under a tower banner add (ad seller pro) making it impossible to get to the edit button. The workaround I use is to collapse the side menu so no big deal but worth mentioning I think.

Is there any way I could use this mod to generate the code I need to use in a banner? I have a banner ad (today's featured videos) with 8 thumbnails. I manually edit the links for the picture and shortcut which opens in a new tab. It would be really nice if they would update automatically when the channel uploads a new video. Maybe I can figure out the address for the latest upload image and link in YouTube instead of a particular video. I think I will get this one but open to advise or a sample.

Thanks

Hello,

I have  a user who is assigned to BOTS group. I have set  post moderation setting so that every post by members in BOTS groups is approved by before posting to respective board.

Currently, topics are auto posted. Why does the RSS Feed poster mod does not respect post moderation setting ?

Will appreciate if it can be added in future releases. That will make a lot of sense.

Sure I can do custom development if needed $25 to get that featured added asap otherwise may or may not be added in a future update.

[bbqsauced]

I think this was mentioned previously, with not real resolution.

It seems that the module never posts the latest entry in each and every feed that is added.  Is there a way around this?

[vbgamer45]

Haven't found the cause for it yet.

One Question, Why is this mod (RSS Feed Poster) isnt publishing the recent post from my pipe list?

My pipe: http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=1f17ec0815ed701c270d2937911ba01b

did you even both to read ANY of the preceding comments?

[luuuciano]

This mod having that "feature", to not show the latest 1 news... it is something that have to be written on the mod description?

[vbgamer45]

Yes

No problems. However, i have few questions.

1. Like i said, I need it to support Topic moderation

2. What if the mod becomes incompatible with future SMF releases ? Will you update the mod in that case ?



3. I need to remove all the characters after certain text. e.g If you see a feed item from here http://feeds.feedburner.com/misalpav/VnhC , every item has a word "लेखनविषय::" at end.  I want an option in mod settings which lets me specify such word per feed (URL) after which all the content will be ignored by mod before posting.

4. Sometimes when feed returns an Image, SOURCE is posted next to image...looks like that is an easy fix of adding <BR> tag before Source text.....just make sure that Source is always at bottom and  next to image or content. See this http://imgur.com/PVpa6xp

5. Option to disable SOURCE which appears in posted item.

6. Payment options I am OK with Google Wallet..I dont have a paypal account.

I'm having a couple of issues I was wondering if anyone could help me with...
first off, how do I get the RSS Poster to post every fetched feed into the same thread when I'm using Pretty URLs?
Secondly, how do I get it to post images from the feed, nothing I've done works so far?

Thanks
