RSS Feeder

I recommend changing the error reporting, rather than changing the source code in Subs-RSS. STRICT and DEPRECATED errors should never be reported in a production environment, but as SMF is designed to work on PHP4 (which doesn't have STRICT and DEPRECATED constants), these aren't in a default install of SMF.

i would have thought that would be easier, but for some reason it always kept showing the error after i tried all the different values.i don't know what i am doing with this stuff, but what i tried worked. but if you advise against it i guess ill try again. thanks for the info.

The feed poster at the moment only posts the base URL.

Is it easy to change this to post the feed item link instead ?

Cool mod SD. Nothing like good ole scraping.

I noticed it grabs the original size of the image from the feed server.(big). It would be cool if it grabs the size posted (smaller) from the feed website.

Is there a way we can resize the images grabbed in our end?

Not really... not easily anyway (anything is possible)

whoa.. this mod messed with something in my server because after installing it i get a 500 Internal Server Error

I checked the error logs (server and forum).. nothing shows
and the permissions are all correct

NHWD · January 21, 2011, 08:31:31 PM

^^ can anybody help? i cant find the cause of the problem

SlammedDime · January 21, 2011, 11:03:44 PM

No idea why this would cause a 500 error... how were you able to check the forum error log if it's throwing 500 errors? If 500 errors aren't showing up in your hosting error log, you may want to ask your host what's up.

i checked it thru ftp
i gave it ftp access to chmod some files that needed to be chmodded.. but idk which files they were

What's the feed? The mod is supposed to pull the link from each individual item if it has one. If it doesn't, it defaults to the main.

http://ownersperspective.com/feed/

http://perspectivemagazine.com/feed/

Are the two main ones

Question:

I recently had a server crash and successfully restored my site, but now when I look at my boards and see the notification of pending posts for approval: (!) it will not go away after all posts have been approved or deleted.

I was curious if perhaps there is some log file or table that this depends on? I would like it to work as it should

Any insight?

This mod posts whole article. I havent choosed that option, bug?

Feed: http://news.opensuse.org/feed/

edit: i try another rss mod...

SlammedDime · February 06, 2011, 10:27:59 AM

Your feed contains the whole article in the 'content' tags... no bug. Don't blame the mod, blame the feed.

Owdy · February 06, 2011, 10:29:33 AM

Well vbgamers mod shows it like it shows in feed: http://news.opensuse.org/feed/ , not whole post.

SlammedDime · February 06, 2011, 10:33:04 AM

Probably because his mod pulls the 'description' tag, not the 'content' tag... the 'content' tag of a RSS feed is meant to be the meat of an item, thus this mod pulls it first, and if no content exists, it pulls description. (when I coded this, I needed the content item for most of the feeds that I was pulling, so thats what I pulled first)

Owdy · February 06, 2011, 10:38:54 AM

Hmm, okay. You should make this an option?
