[FleaBag]

Very nice, thanks a lot.

[Hornstar]

yeah thanks for this, it will make it a lot easier for members to start subscribing to my RSS feeds.

[ShawneyJ]

Excellent

[Boosted Panda]

I must be doing something wrong. It works, but when I click on the RSS icon I get a blank page. I am using vBseo too does that make a difference?

[Jasem]

Thank you very much, :)

I have the same problem...

Are you using TfSEO? Make sure your edits are correctly done. I did all the edits and yet I still get this blank page :S

the rss feed works just in public forums ((visitors can read threads )) .

The RSS Feed works well in all cases: Public or Closed forums.

For closed forums, just install this Mods (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=127062) by Abe1 first. Then follow the normal procedure for activating RSS Feed from your ACP. :up:

I have it working on my Board (vB 3.7 CR2).

Attached is a less eye catching rss icon (if you don?t want your forum homepage to be filled with the standard orange rss icon).

[macc]

Thanks for help - now works!

[pericolosogr]

How can i just make it appear only to forums which are free to read/view to all members/visitors of my website?

I just dont want the icon to appear in private forums cause there is no point...thanx!

[nirvana43]

well it should be replaced by :
<a href="external.php?forumids=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/rss_small.gif" border="0" width="13" height="11" hspace="2" alt="Subscribe to this feed $forum[title]"></img></a>

so that there will be no more w3c html markup validation errors!! Bingo! :D

that will make it 100% w3c validated! :D

thanks for mod though!

[pericolosogr]

So is there any way i can add this icon only to Forums i want...and to all of them?

[KURTZ]

is possible put the feed icon not near the forum title, but at the end of the 'forum cell'?

[trigatch4]

Try adding this to the snippet:

style="float: right"

So it looks like this:

<a href="external.php?forumids=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/rss_small.gif" style="float: right" border="0" width="13" height="11" hspace="2" alt="Subscribe to this feed $forum[title]"></a>

Yes, I am also using that code, and its still not working.

[echo2kk5]

For those getting the blank pages...do this:
Admin CP > vBulletin Options > External Data Provider > Enable RSS Syndication << set to yes. ;)

I also believe if certain forum permissions are set to certain usergroups that the feed will not show...great for protecting certain forums! :up:

[big_joe]

This setting allows you to enable/disable the RSS content syndication system.

Yes

it was enable, i dont find a way to make it work

[aamirkhj]

Hi is it possible to use RSS image inside the forum next to threads, I am only keeping 3 threads inside the forum for RSS as sticky threads if I can add RSS icon there it will tell user that this thread is RSS.

Any way to do that to certain threads to a dedicated forum only??

[KURTZ]

if someone want to put the icon in forumdisplay (subforums)

[joeycano]

I'm wondering how to replace the vb.com logo on the page after selecting the rss icon on forum home.

Also, it appears that the rss icon is distorted on the forum display. Is there any way to get the icon to appear clearer.

[Phaedrus]

Can you write up a bit to put one next to thread titles too? I don't know what variables it would use, but it has to be similar...

[Phaedrus]

This also seems to only work for feeds that are visible to all guests/users.

If the forum is restricted at all, I get a blank page, otherwise it works perfectly.

download external.php to your computer and edit this code :

How do I move the RSS icon in the subforum to be closer to the subforum name?

Currently it is on the far right hand side of the page:
http://www.phonedevil.com/funny-videos/

[callumbush]

download external.php to your computer and edit this code :
$rssicon = create_full_url($stylevar['imgdir_misc'] . '/rss.jpg'); then change rss.jpg with another image in { forum/images/misc } folder


check this post : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1516536&postcount=44

This doesn't seem to change the image? I've also tried just changing rss.jpg to a different image and that doesn't work either?

[NeverBored]

All you need to do to change that image is upload the pic you want to use as rss.jpg in the misc image folder, rather than editing anything.

[callumbush]

cheers it works now, there was a delay on it for some reason

My sub-forum rss icons are still in really random positions (some of them are in the right place, but most of them arent!), any ideas how to resolve? I used the code that was mentioned earlier in the thread.

http://www.phonedevil.com/phone-information/

[NeverBored]

Mine are odd too. I'm not really sure why it's like that, I've been meaning to figure it out soon. I'll post up if I figure it out, unless someone does before me.

[TheInsaneManiac]

You must make the forum permissions public. Dunno why, but if you set it to where only members can view the forum, they cant view the rss.

[callumbush]

All of mine are public, the only thing that is restricted is the download of attachments.
The rss feed icons on my homepage give a blank page, yet the ones on their sub forums work?

I think the issue could be that the ones on my homepage aren't actually the top level forums, they are 2nd level ("Select from the groups below:" is the top level forum). Do you think this could be the source of the issue for some of us?

www.PhoneDevil.com

[rcwild]

Please forgive my RSS Feed ignorance, but ...

I installed the mod. RSS icons are there. Click on one and I'm taken to a page that shows the content. Now, how do users subscribe so their getting notices in email or RSS reader or the Live Bookmark thing?

[vixyswillie]

rcwild - If you're getting what appears to be a window full of code when you click on the icon, it's because you don't have an RSS feed reader installed to manage the subscription. You (and each of your forum users) would need that in order to successfully subscribe to the feeds after clicking on the icons.

[DieselMinded]

How do i make this not show up on Forums acting as Links ?

Anyone

[vixyswillie]

What do you mean, "acting as links?" The implementation on your site appears correct.

[DieselMinded]

2 forums are links and not forums , they have the RSS feed Icon next to them this is wrong

Looks good. Any way to add this to sub-forums?

Hi all,

A few issues :)

1.) This seems to be messing up my forum heirarchies:

For example

http://www.phonedevil.com/f136/

> "UK" should is a child forum of "Best Phone Deals", but they both show on this page?


2) If you click on the RSS icon on the forums on my homepage, the feeds are blank (they do not show any threads)?

http://www.phonedevil.com/

Please help! :)

Have you enabled RSS syndication in admincp?

[callumbush]

yep already done that :)

[vixyswillie]

Have you enabled Guest permissions to view forums, threads and posts? VB's implementation of RSS is based off Guest permissions. If your forums are closed to Guests, the RSS feed will not have any content to display.

[cemepe]

Hi, i added the code as described and it still doesn't work on my vb 3.7.0. The icon doesn't show before threads. I got rss enabled and the other option under it (forgot it`s name) and still the damn gif refuses to appear. I`ve uploaded the gif in the images/misc directory also.
Did i mess something up ?:erm:

Hey

Okay I think i've figured out what it is!! If one of my homepage forums has a sub-forum, the RSS feed will not work. However if there is not a sub-forum, then the rss feed works!
....if this is correct then this hack is not very useful ;) can anyone help?

p.s. I have now restricted guests from viewing threads. However it still did not work when they were permitted to view threads.

Does anyone know if this mod can be hidden from guests? I would love to have this shown only to members...otherwise the membership becomes kinda hard to control if a visitor wants to read the posts from the feeds.

Hiya thanks for looking.

Its still not working for me. I ony see feed content when I click on the icon for the Phone unlocking forum (i.e. the top one). All the rest are blank..

Nice hack. However it doesn't prevent hidden links to not be shown in rss.
I'm using hide hack to hide download links to guests but links aren't hidden in RSS.

Hello thanks for this hack.

I've got a question, I've got forum (closed for new post) with sub-forums wich contains all the post.
I would like that RSS icon on forum home syndicate for all subforum containing.

Exemple: forum id1 containing subforum 2, 3 et 5. The feed will be : http://www.myvbulletin.com/forum/external.php?type=xml&forumids=2,3,5

I could use this too, I can't find a variable that lists each subforum id though. I don't understand why vbulletin didn't make it so each category had a feed of it's own.

How would I go about adding this to only one specific forum?
Change the X to the forum id you want it to display on, and of course put the rss icon code in place of "rss code"
<if condition="$forum[forumid] == 'X'">RSS code</if>

[Dragon Company]

go into the vb options and then find the rss options and set them all to yes. Also, I had to add the code to forumhome_forumbit_level1_post, it depends on how your forum is setup though.

Intalled on my 3.7.2 board and seems ok, but i have just an issue:

This is working really well for me on 3.7.2 EXCEPT for some forums. My forum is set up as UTF-8 and we have some forums in other languages. English is the main language and is the forum default. Feeds are not being generated from the foreign language boards. Any idea why?

Hi,

I installed this mod (3.7 version) several days ago on 4 forums which are all visable to the public, but 2 are completely empty and not showing anything, the other is displaying one post and the last is showing about 3 posts. How can I get this to work properly?

I have already checked that the RSS Syndication is set to yes, is there anything else I can check?

Any help or advice would be most appreciated!

Hello Pete

It depends on the "Thread Cutoff" = This value controls how many days in the past that updated threads will be chosen from. Busy forums will want a smaller number. The smallest valid value is 1 day; the default is 30 days.

Just change the 30 days to a bigger number and you will see the post in RSS.

Hope this helps,
Peter.

Go to your Admin CP vBulletin Options -> External Data Provider -> Enable RSS Syndication Check YES , you enable it and click SAVE

Done!!!!!! It worked. Please put this info in the mod directions - it will save people hours.

I have installed this in threadbit
<a href="external.php?showthread=$thread[threadid]"><img src="images/misc/rss_small.gif" border="0" width="13" height="11" hspace="2" alt="Subscribe to this feed $forum[title]"></a>

It gives the impression that I can subscribe to the THREAD. Instead, when loading the link in a Reader, it is subscribing to the entire FORUM NOT the Thread.

What about Threads in Forum ?

[GSeybold]

works great. easy install Only problem I have is that if I have a forum set to members only viewing, even when the member is logged in, a blank page is viewed for these particular forum. Only the forums open to public viewing are have live RSS feeds.

[GSeybold]

doh just paste it before
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a>
"


Is this is the same spot as pasted it below the original directions? LOL
