Hello All,

I have installed the mod RSS Feed Poster(version 4.2.1) and it is working well bar one issue. If the feeds include a link they do not work, when clicked they just open a new tab in the browser called about:blank

I am using SMF 2.0.11

The feed URL is hxxp:www.google.com/alerts/feeds/08165373219290797405/15146823727046691509 [nonactive]

an example of the feed content is;

<feed xmlns="hxxp:www.w3.org/2005/Atom [nonactive]" xmlns:idx="urn:atom-extension:indexing">
<id>
tag:google.com,2005:reader/user/08165373219290797405/state/com.google/alerts/15146823727046691509

hi!

I tried to setup this mod on my board but it's showing wrong characters..

example: "Dragões sofreram, em Paços de Ferreira, a 13ª derrota da temporada."

how can I fix it?

Anyone?

By using rss auto-posting, you're basically aggregating (duplicating) content so the more you use this, without adding custom "value" i.e your own original content to the mix, the more likelyhood google will keep pushing you down the ranks. Google is all about original content. Those of whom publish this, usually do better than copycats in rankings.

So it's legal, many sites have this feature but it's always an internal feature for members to use to keep upto date on news etc.

Another use of this modification is link building for SEO purposes.

If you run more than one site you can point this at the RSS of the other site to help out with inbound links.

Since most RSS feeds have there descriptions cut off, your not entirely copying the content and once users start replying your page content now differs from the source. Think of it like quoting a site.

Just don't get carried away, that may impact SEO.

So I tried using this with youtube and when it posts the link its all messed up and posts the link as http:///

How do I go about getting extra features added to this mod and paying for them?

It should auto do it. Unless the board doesn't count posts.
The member must exist.
