Hey guys, i originally posted this on the customer support section on vbulletin.com but they told me to come here. Anyway my problem is that the links within the RSS feed themselves are not complete. What i mean by that is that i am importing this feed http://www.swtor.com/feed/news/all/ and it imports perfectly fine into my forums. The problem is that the links dont contain the home address (not sure what to call it), for example instead of http://www.swtor.com/news/article/20090717_002 the link comes up as /news/article/20090717_002


How do i go about fixing this?

I'm getting the same thing on my test forum so I'm guessing it is a problem on their end.

You could probably get around it by modifying the link in the template to:
More... (http://www.swtor.com{feed:link})

On a similar note, I'm trying to include an image from the same RSS feed, currently I have this:


{feed:description}

{feed:enclosure_href}

More... ({feed:link})
This works Ok, but doesn't have the supplied image which I don't understand, the RSS feed is at:

http://www.swtor.com/feed/news/all

Could someone look into this for me please?

Any help is appreciated.

I don't think that is a valid feed.

Here's the error:

XML Error: mismatched tag at Line 2

Here's the RSS link:

http://gibill.va.gov/rss/feeds/911.xml

Title and Body Template were left alone.

What can possibly be the error? I'm no programmer - I'm learning.

the url is http://studentveteranforums.com

Thanks Vbulletin friends.
