[MOD] RSS Feed 0.1

[mawenzi]

@sigma,

I think ... in rss.php ... but I don't know your rss-files ... !
I designed my rss-feeds, by using html-tags, completely in rss.php with ...

Code: [Select]


$content .= " ... here html-content ... ";

Heres what my rss.php looks like.

[Flo2005]

I must do the following changes to get my rss.php to run

In includes/templates.php find:
Code:
    error_reporting($old);
Insert below:
Code:
    $str = preg_replace(
            "/<!--\\\\ open tag (.+) \\\\-->(.*)<!--\\\\ close tag \\\\-->/siU",
            "<?\\1\\2?>",
            $str
    );

Then find:
Code:
    // Compile variables in PHP code
Insert above:
Code:
    $template = preg_replace(
            "/<\?+((?!php )(?!=)(?! ).+ )(.*)\?+>/siU",
            "<!--\\\\ open tag \\1 \\\\-->\\2<!--\\\\ close tag \\\\-->",
            $template
    );

But when I do this changes, my Random Banner MOD won´t work any longer 

Here is my banner_random.php

Code: [Select]

Somebody got the plan  ?

[Flo2005]

Okay, now it works!

But where can I set to show only files which are younger e.g. 7 days :

Now my rss.php shows me files which are older than 7 days...

THX by Flo

[graficalicus]

way back on page 1 of this thread, I asked about removing " ' ", " & ", " ; " , etc., characters and got this reply:

"description" => stripslashes($image_row["image_description"])

this should work (not tested).

it didn't work 

Can anyone suggest a fix for this - some kind of character substitution like

Code: [Select]

In includes/templates.php find:
Code:
    error_reporting($old);
Insert below:
Code:
    $str = preg_replace(
            "/<!--\\\\ open tag (.+) \\\\-->(.*)<!--\\\\ close tag \\\\-->/siU",
            "<?\\1\\2?>",
            $str
    );

Then find:
Code:
    // Compile variables in PHP code
Insert above:
Code:
    $template = preg_replace(
            "/<\?+((?!php )(?!=)(?! ).+ )(.*)\?+>/siU",
            "<!--\\\\ open tag \\1 \\\\-->\\2<!--\\\\ close tag \\\\-->",
            $template
    );
?  Any time a user uses one of those characters in their image description while uploading, it craps out the feed....

Thanks -

[graficalicus]

HA HA! HO HO!   i fixed it -

simply move the {description} tag inside the CDATA tag, as mentioned earlier in this thread - -

Magpie likes it, Feedburner[/url] likes it -

the only change is in rssitem.html (mine looks like this - yours may be different):

Code: [Select]

<item>
  <title>{category}/{title}</title>
 <link>
  {link}
</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[{thumbnail}
{description}]]>   
  </description>
</item>

this give me this error Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/blacktra/public_html/rss.php on line 57

I have a problem when I try to view the RSS with Internet Explorer. Some of the categorys has a ' in then. But IE doesn't like that. Anyway workaround for this?

[sigma.]

Is there a way to use the larger image insted of the thumbnail image to be displayed in the feed?

[sigma.]

Anyone know how to exclude certain categories from the RSS Feed? I have had success with tweaking the index.php to exclude certain categories from New Images but have not had success copying that code into the rss.php

Heres the exclude from index.php tweak

[cronk005]

Hi There--

So how would one go about getting this to work with the multilang() function so that it does not say the entire [language]wording wording wording[/] [language2]wording wording wording[/].

Regards,

[sigma.]

With the new Google Reader site http://www.google.com/reader/view/

I think this RSS feed really needs a non thumbnail view.

How can we show the full image insted of the thumbnail?
