From the vBulletin hand book.....

Quote:

Within vBulletin, we allow you to access only specific parts of the RSS. The fields you can use are title, description, link, id, date, enclosure_href and content:encoded

I have tried all of these and nothing works. I guess the RSS feed I want has changed some how. I have allow BB code and also convert html to bb code set to yes also. Also set it to no for testing.

Quote:

If the BB Code doesn't solve the problem, you'd need to post a sample item from your feed.

Maybe if you post an item from the feed...?

<a href="http://rss.indeed.com/rss?q=teamster" target="_blank">http://rss.indeed.com/rss?q=teamster</a> This is the feed I am having problems with.

Have a quick look at a feed item:

There's a "<link> element which should turn into your link if you're using the standard template.

But: the <description> element contains an URL within it. That will become part of the description text, as ugly as it is. To my knowledge, vBulletin will not parse out links in the description text. They're using the <link> (the thing that turns into your hyperlink) to point to a generic website. They're embedding the actual link in the description.

vB staff: am I right in assuming that links within the feed <description> will not be parsed back into links?

A link in the <description> won't work I guess then. I learn something new. WOUls this be something vbulletin.org should look at and get to work?

--------------- Added [DATE]1229942992[/DATE] at [TIME]1229942992[/TIME] ---------------

Links are in the <description> also on my other feeds also. All the feeds started to mess up at once a few weeks ago.
