--------------------------------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------

This mod allows you to import them as messages as well!
It can be convenient for RSS with the important information which doesn't required to be discussed.

----------------------------------- REMARKS -----------------------------------

If the thread ID does not set, than the name of RSS feed will be the used as title of the topic.
If the topic still does not exist in the specified forum, it will be created with first item of RSS.
Practically all adjustments for display of RSS items as topics will influence on their display as posts.

Ok. Screenshots in first post</font>

atrljoe 04-24-2008 01:57 PM
Is there any way to make it so that all the RSS feed info is published into one Post? Then it just creates a new post the next time it gets the RSS Feed? Is this possible?
Thanks I luv the hack!!!

wonder if RSS could turn into new threads

then you can setup a forum for CMPS VB Advanced as news articles on the front page

furst 04-24-2008 04:00 PM
I've been waiting for something like this forever. Thanks a bunch.

Jasem 04-25-2008 07:37 AM
useful. Thanx

kollam003 04-30-2008 09:05 AM
can we get the full messgaes from the Feeds other than quoting Read for More.....

If you are using RSS feed from vBulletin forums then try to add "&fulldesc=1" to the end of the link.
For example:
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/exter...s=1&fulldesc=1

thompson 05-01-2008 12:08 PM
i think it doesnt work with vbseo. it dont accept the thread id.

peterska2 05-06-2008 11:49 PM
Nice idea. It doesn't work properly on my site though. :(

I want to specify thread id's starting from 2722286 but the max that can be specified is 65535 so it is posting everything from all my feeds into one thread. Looking into the possibility of fixing this now though, if I get a fix I'll post it up in case anyone else has similar issues.

[edit 1]
I've changed the threadid field in the rssfeed table added by this product to an INT(11). I'll report back if this gets it working.

[edit 2]
Yup - that worked. I suggest you update the installation query in the XML to make the field an INT(11) instead so that it will work for people with larger forums/more threads than 65535

dcw 05-08-2008 04:33 AM
Hmm some reason it is missing the admincp\rssposter.php or atleast in what I just downloaded there isn't one in it, I downloaded 3tiems and stilll nothing. I just get the include folder.

TheInsaneManiac 05-08-2008 09:17 PM
Anyway to make the More thing go away and just post the whole topic instead of a More link?

It is not in his zip file, but you can find it in your admincp\rssposter.php, I think.

netzrate 05-18-2008 08:23 AM
Works fine!
Thank you :)

peterska2 05-18-2008 12:12 PM
One request that would make this perfect:

- Start a new thread after x replies

Also, a bug:

- If the threadid is set to 0 and the RSS bot runs two or more feeds at the same time it jumbles the replies with the other feeds running at the same time. It doesn't set a threadid in these cases and continues for ever jumbling the posts with other threads created by other feeds. In these cases the forum settings for the feeds are also ignored.

zCarot 05-18-2008 12:32 PM

Thanks. The new version will be not earlier than in 10 days (examinations :( )

peterska2 05-18-2008 12:42 PM
Cheers zCarot :D

I'm looking forward to it - you would not believe how much of a godsend this is for me.

vmacedonia 05-23-2008 10:47 PM
Very, very useful.
Thanks, installed.

zCarot 05-24-2008 12:16 PM
0.5.1 (2008/05/24)
- FIXED: another bug when thread ID was not set up, or thread ID = 0 (thx. Kerry-Anne)

0.5 (2008/05/24)
- NEW: now you have an option to merge many RSS items to one post (atrljoe's idea)
- NEW: now you have an option to close old thread after X posts (Kerry-Anne's idea)
- FIXED: if you choose "preview" or you have some errors in settings then your thread ID is set up to 0
- FIXED: if thread ID was not set up, or thread ID = 0, then mod will not work sometimes
- FIXED: bug then thread ID > 65535 (thx. Kerry-Anne)

Script take all content from RSS feed. Link "more" is just a link from RSS feed from field named 'link'. If you want to take more, then you need a RSS feed with more info.</font>

peterska2 05-31-2008 12:37 AM
Perfect! It's running a dream for me now.

I'm one very happy bunny right now :)

luckid 05-31-2008 08:28 AM

Ive been using a similar feed and unable to find full feeds.

hobbybox 06-17-2008 01:43 PM
I just cant see what this does that the regular RSS feed doesnt do...can anyone clarify?

slabuda 06-18-2008 03:09 PM
I am receivin this error after installing this MOD.

Code:
Fatal error: Cannot pass parameter 2 by reference in /home/consili/public_html/home/forums/includes/cron/rssposter.php(311) : eval()'d code on line 95

Aden 06-18-2008 05:00 PM
Not working.. apparently i dont have a ffrss.php file?

intrigue 06-18-2008 05:38 PM
Although i have this set to threads it still posts the RSS feeds as i item per post in 1 thread labelled with the label that i set the feed to.

Please can you tell me how i set it to threads other then simply setting it on the radio control button as this has me confused

Thanks

matt

intrigue 06-18-2008 05:39 PM

deneme2 06-20-2008 03:19 PM
thanks

pcoskat 06-21-2008 06:20 PM
I just want to make sure I understand this mod...

If I have it installed, and do NOT set a thread # for a particular feed, then posts from that feed will always start a new thread - is that correct?

I'm asking because I have one forum that I want each post to be a new thread, and another where the feed items should post to the same thread - this is possible, yes?

On my site, I do not have this mod installed, however, the "name of the rss feed" is not used at the title topic. Instead the name of the 'feed item' is used. How are you getting the actual 'feed name' to be used as the topic title?

I posted about this here, and on vBulletin.com: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=183141

Nope. In this case the forum will check up, whether there is a thread with the specified name in this forum. If is not present, he will create it.

Yes, it is possible. By default the forum gives two variants: to post as the announcement and as themes. The given module simply adds the third variant - to post as the post of the thread.

This function extends only on this module.
