Is there anyway to change it so that the forum the RSS Bot posts in, doesn't come up in the "New Posts" and stuff like that? Becuase the bot is spamming soo much, it's hard to see what has been posted by actual members of the community.

Where X,Y,Z is a comma-separated list of forumids you want to exclude.

sweet thanks! Works like a charm... now i" just gotta edit vbadvanced to add that into the 'latest topics' and i'm pretty sure it'll be a simliar way of doing it. And the Welcome CP back in Vbadvanced... guess i'll do that at work today :)

thanks agian :)

Well I found out in the vBa CMPS there is an option to exclude certain forums, so i did that.

But there still is one problem.

In the Template for vBa CMPS: adv_portal_welcomeblock
Code:

<if condition="$vba_options['portal_welcome_newposts']"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getnew&exclude=113">$vbphrase[new_posts]</a>: $newposts        <br /></if>

Well I did the Exclude on the forum I don't want, but the $newposts is just a number, and I don't know how to exclude that. I wouldn't mind but for me I'm sitting there seeing there are 15 new posts, but when I click that, i only see 2 or so threads.

Anyone have any Idea's on how to do that?

No the userid, i.e. the number of the user.

The bot seems to be working fine- great hack! However - it is only bringing back bits and not the full article:

http://img180.exs.cx/img180/7021/partialfeed9yz.jpg

How can I set it to post the full article, and not just the first part. Is that the RSS feed's fault, or is there a setting somewhere to allow it to post the full article?

That's the RSS Feeds fault

so the trick is finding a good RSS feed I see.. hmmm.. that will be the tricky part :rolleyes:

The feeds aren't supposed to post the full article. You could be breaking copyrights if you attempt to post the full article.

I know that, but there is a different between a full article and a broken feed with half a post!

Did you know that you can turn searches @ http://search.news.yahoo.com into RSS feeds? do a search and then look for "View as RSS" in the right sidebar.
