RSSFit ignores the group settings for newbb2 private forums.

I know newbb2 hasn't been released yet (RC2 today) but has anyone looked into fixing this? I don't want my RSS readers seeing private forum information.

Thanks...

Yes anyone has looked into it. Now the RSS Feed shows only the Posts which normally anonymous can see. Adding more Permissions is in discussion. Just follow the CVS updates and you would know this

btw this Feature can be disabled.

I think you talking about the RSS feed built into newbb2?

I am using RSSFit to send RSS from newbb2, news, mylinks and wf-sections. RSSFit has plugins for different modules - for newbb it is rssfit.newbb.php - which looks to be written by people at Brandycoke Productions. Their forum doesn't look very active so I posted here.

I would switch to the rss feed from newbb2 but I like having everything in one place.

I will look through the newbb plugin and see if there is a simple fix.

Cheers

Thanks Predator - sorry to burden you further

I added a nasty hack for my own site where I only have 1 private forum. This also prevents display of topics with ANY karma rating.

Quote:

while( $row = $xoopsDB->fetchArray($result) ){
if ( $row['forum_id'] == 14 ) { #NASTY HACK!!!
continue;
}
$sql = 'SELECT post_karma FROM '.$xoopsDB->prefix('bb_posts').' WHERE post_id = '.$row['topic_last_post_id'];
list($karma) = $xoopsDB->fetchRow($xoopsDB->query($sql))
if ($karma) {
continue;
}



I couldn't find the permissions flag in the SQL for the forums - but this works for now.

On a similar issue (probably fixed in CVS )... Polls from a private forum - in a block - are displayed to anonymous users on the front page.
