vb.org Archive - vBJournal for vBulletin 3.5

Hi -

I added RSS 1.0 (RDF) functionality to my install of vB Journal. Basically, you have to change "SELECT journalist,journalist_id" to "SELECT journalist,journalist_id,journalname,journaldesc" in the downloadjournal section of journal.php, make sure your Unregistered usergroup can view journals in the Admin CP, and paste this code in journal.php after the XML download part:

Code:

// RSS 1.0 Begins

// RSS 1.0 Ends

You'll then need to add a link to download it in the drop down menu. More as I figure it out...

Edit (2005-03-30): The template is called journal_journalpage - change type=xml to type=rss1 and XML Format to RSS 1.0 Format. Fixed problem with a missing private check.

Edit (2005-03-31): Added content:encoded CDATA, and removed UBB tags. Changed items to use URL instead of an arbitrary sequence number. I also like to change "ORDER by entrydate ASC" to DESC in downloadjournal, but this is personal preference.

Edit (2005-04-14): I've made quite a few changes to the code, namely adding UTF-8 encoding and using corresponding content-type, adding a check to make sure the journal title isn't empty, limiting the number of items to 15.

Edit (2005-11-28): Updated for vB 3.5.
