RSS feed that link to wrapped forum?

[Orstio]

Thanks for the reminder. 

It will work, but in smf.php you need to add this:

Code Select Expand

//Don't forget XML feeds
$buffer = str_replace('<link>'.$scripturl, '<link>'.$myurl, $buffer );
$buffer = str_replace('<link>'.$scripturl, '<link>'.$myurl, $buffer );

right after this:

Code Select Expand

$buffer = str_replace('\'' . $scripturl, '\'' . $myurl, $buffer);

(Should be line 159).

Cool thanks. I have to hold off updating for a few days, so if anyone applies the changes that Orstio mentions, how about posting here as I'd love to see RSS feeds back in action! And thanks Orstio

You can see it in action on my site:

Nice.

Is this only with RC3?  Or will it work with RC2?

[Orstio]

Only with RC3.

Looks like a good reason to upgrade. 

Thanks Orstio.... the SMF/Joomla-Mambo bridged combo just keeps getting better and better.  Very nice work you are doing.

Thank you

I was having a similar problem as the rest of you but I created my own podcast on a Joomla site and it turns out that it is not the ampersands or question marks that were causing the problem, it is the word "option".  That is why in torkil's previous post the first one did not validate but the second one did:

<link>hxxp:www.kampforum.com/index.php [nonactive]?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&?topic=9790.msg139133#msg139133</link>

I cannot find a solution to this problem on the internet but I was thinking of encoding the word option in the URL.

UPDATE: It turns out it was because I had to convert the ampersands to &amp;

[Orstio]

No, it's the fact that there is a second question mark in the query string.
This will validate:

Code Select Expand

<link>http://www.kampforum.com/index.php?option=com_smf&amp;Itemid=26&amp;topic=9790.msg139133#msg139133</link>

I activated this today but then had to switch it off, as users email addresses were being shown 
Any way to make sure that people who have hidden their email address don't get their address shown?

Also...can't figure out anyway to get it to list the last 10 most recent topics that have had a post to them. Can do the last 10 posts, the last 10 new threads...but not the last 10 threads that have a new post in them?

no way, in the current system...   you'd have to write a mod to do that.

In my instance, the links in the rss reader come out with /forums in the URL. I.E.:

Code Select Expand

http://www.DOMAIN.com/forums/index.php?topic=2008.msg19477#msg19477

What causes this, and how do I fix it? Thanks.

[EDIT] Nevermind...skipped right over this part:

Code Select Expand

//Don't forget XML feeds
$buffer = str_replace('<link>'.$scripturl, '<link>'.$myurl, $buffer );
$buffer = str_replace('<link>'.$scripturl, '<link>'.$myurl, $buffer );

[dbrown]

Any way to show the latest members, and other functions that you used to be able to do? I don't think I've got the formatting down if it's possible. Thanks.

OK....if that's the case...what file would I hack so that all email addresses are listed "[email protected]" ?

There's just no way I can let users go through a registration process, decide not to have their email address displayed, post a message and then betray the agreement not to display their address!

Alternatively, does some clever coder have a way where the code would say "if email address = hidden, post email address as [email protected]" ?

Anyone?

What and where is this "smf.php"?

[phil_roy]

Once you've installed the bridge into Joomla, you'll find that file in your joomla directory/components/com_smf folder.

Ah, the bridge you say?  Alrighty then.

Thanks.

[chase_m]

I am unable to CHMOD the "smf.php" file (I'm using the FTP proggie, FlashFXP), and therefore I am unable to rewrite the file.

How do I resolve this situation? 

Thanks in advance.

Try installing joomlaXplorer
