I want to display feeds in phpbb, feeds that will update on their own the way the feeds on my front page do here:http://wallstreetpop.com

Is there a way of giving a forum topic php cabability? If so, I've got Carp php code that will generate a feed.

I thought javascript would work, but it displays as script.

Thanks

I was wondering if there's a way to place rss feeds in a forum in such a way that these feeds update.

Javascript? Php? what would do it?

By the way, how do I mod this so it pulls from news2 instead of news?

you might want to try "xf_newsmod_blocks"
find it in this thread:HERE

I found that i had to edit the "news_all.php" block to make it display the text and html the way i wanted it to.

Quote:


$hometext = $myts->displayTarea(substr($myrow['hometext'], 1, ($options[3] - 1), 1 ))."...";


i changed this to:


$hometext = substr($hometext, 0, ($options[3] - 1))."...";



NOTE: this will only affect the display if you opt to limit the amount of characters of the hometext to display.
also, i did this a while ago, and as far as i can remember, this is all that i changed, so with this in mind, keep a backup......

hope that helps.



Right, this is want I needed. Did the mod and it turned out fine.

Thanks, all.

I'm not sure if people have given up on my earlier message so I'll try again here.

I'm looking for a simple news block similar to the Spotline block that doesn't mess up the formatting of text and photos the way the Spotline block does.

Tried AMS but it doesn't display article content in its blocks, only headlines.

Custom blocks don't format like text blocks and also don't provide text editors.

Spotlight 2.2 does this. But you'll have to mess around with it for a while before it gives clean results. I use it on my website. I could post the template I use.

The spotlight block does place photos and text correctly.

Is there anything else?

Ric

That should be: The spotlight block does not place format text with photos correctly ...

AMS 2.4 also has quite advanced spotlight functionality. The public release of this should be out in the next 2~3 weeks.


Which AMS block spotlights content the way Spotlight does?

I need a news block that can contain the first paragraph of my article, not just the headlines. This block should have the same flexibility as a custom block.

Which news module has this?

No. Can't log in. I get the identical error message as before: You don't have permission to enter this area (admin)

And when I try to log in: "Incorrect log in"

And when I choose lost password option: "No match"

I'll try the restall again. I'm thinking, however, this shouldn't be happening. That a person shouldn't have to spend two days getting back into his website.

Tried to reinstall and just as I thought: the installation stops cold when it discovers the first database is already there.
