Re: RSS Feed

2004/1/9 16:19 the headlines module is inside the core package, you have only to install it in System Admin->Modules

Re: RSS Feed

2004/1/23 0:38 I go the // Lykos Syndication Module
// Written by Samuel Wright (http://www.lykoszine.co.uk)

but I want the RSS links to work all of them are just defaulting to: http://www.sermonindex.net/modules/mydownloads/index.php?lid=

and there is no lid=432 # specified.. why is this? is the coding right below? I am using XOOPS 1.3.. thanks.


Quote:
$myts = & MyTextSanitizer::getInstance();
while ( $myrow = $xoopsDB->fetchArray($result) ) {
$temp .= " <item>\n";
$temp .= " <title>".$myts->makeTboxData4Show($myrow['title'])."</title>\n";
$temp .= " <link>".XOOPS_URL."/modules/mydownloads/index.php?lid=".$myts->makeTboxData4Show($myrow['did'])."</link>\n";
$temp .= " </item>\n";

Re: RSS Feed

2004/1/23 9:08 Alright mate, now that is one BIG bug! Can't belive it has not been pointed out before.

Will sort that out this weekend sometime.

Regarding the 2 posts above. This functionality will be put in the core modules soon, rather than being a separate module.

Atom? Yeah maybe, if I can figure out how to use it

2004/1/23 15:38 FIXED!

to

Quote:

yes the 'did' to 'lid' in the downloads.rss.php file fixed the problem. Also I just changed it from index.php to singlefile.php so it will load the page with the file instead of just being a direct download link.
