Re: Autodetect RSS

Everybody's too busy bitching and moaning.

You can get browsers to auto detect the feed by adding the following line for each feed URL in your META tags...

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS Feed Title" href="http://yourdomain.com/backend.php" />


RSS-Fit works really well at giving RSS to modules that may not necessarily have RSS. If you combine that with Feedburner.com, you can really enhance your feeds.

There may be a way to automatically detect whether a module has a feed or not, or a way to build a feed directly off of the smarty output or DB, but that's beyond my skill level.

Don't know if that is what you were looking for, but at least I gave it a shot.

I call it like I see it. What I see is somebody who obviously has questionable ethics (squatting on a few typo domains that are awfully similar to the company you're complaining about) accusing a company publicly who has contributed a lot to the community.

Having issues with XD is one thing. Dragging it into the public eye is another.

If you didn't want opposition, you should have kept your issues with XD private. By dragging it out into the public, you opened yourself up to scrutiny.

Know it all? No. But I know a rat when I see one.

Perhaps it's not, but it does smell a bit gamy.

Am I the only one who thinks that Will_H's recent announcement of charging for themes and now his father's accusations against XOOPS Design are a bit more than a little fishy?

Especially considering script_fu's past comments about XOOPS Design?

What about the WHOIS info of the person who is squatting on xoopsdesigns.com?

Who stands to benefit the most if the top producer of paid XOOPS Themes gets a bad reputation. Ah, yes, another paid XOOPS Theme producer.

If it looks like a fish, smells like a fish, and acts like a fish...

I'm with JAVesey on this one. Take it elsewhere. The motivations for such bad press against a company that has been nothing but a positive contributor to XOOPS are suspect at best.

If a webmaster never posts as the admin account, it makes it more difficult for the admin account to be sniffed out by casual queries. Given the DB structure of XOOPS, though, a knowledgeable hacker could circumvent this in seconds, provided they could perform DB queries that are unchecked.

Below is some code for userinfo.php. it is set so only system_admin can view that profile.

$isAdmin = $gperm_handler->checkRight( 'system_admin', XOOPS_SYSTEM_USER, $groups);            // isadmin is true if user has 'edit users' admin rights

Some people deliberately set uid 1 as a non-privileged or non-existent account for security reasons. Omitting that portion of the code and just checking for !$isAdmin is sufficient.

$isAdmin = $gperm_handler->checkRight( 'system_admin', XOOPS_SYSTEM_USER, $groups);            // isadmin is true if user has 'edit users' admin rights

//Added Code

Unless I'm mistaken, XOOPS is hard coded to only allow a maximum of 200 emails to be sent. A lot of ISPs will blacklist either your domain, IP, or both if you send out more than 100 emails at a time.

For mass mailings, you're better off to use a mailing list manager likehttp://www.phplist.com/
