DownloadsII Simple RSS Feed Add-On
 
1 Attachment(s)
NO SUPPORT GIVEN FOR THIS RELEASE

What Does It Do?
Allows you to create a simple RSS feed for your DownloadsII database.

As this feed is XML it must be "well-formed" and "valid". Your feed will not work if there are errors such as if there is an & (instead of using & ) in the RSS feed etc...

DownloadsII Simple RSS Feed Add-On is not a standalone mod. It requires DownloadsII.

Live Demo
Click here to see a LIVE DEMO (Usually has errors as the files often have &'s in the descriptions)

Installation
1) Extract the archive.
2) Edit /upload/downloads_config.php and fill in your details.

PHP Code:
$dbhost = 'localhost'; //mySQL host. Should be fine to leave as localhost
$dbuser = 'root'; //mySQL user
$dbpass = ''; //mySQL password
$dbname = 'forums'; //mySQL database name
$tblname = 'vb3_dl_files'; //mySQL table name. Default is vb3_dl_files
$fields = 'id, name, description, date, purgatory'; //fields you want to retrieve information from. Seperate with a comma.
$limit = '5'; //number of items to display in the feed.
$siteURL = "http://www.your-site.co.uk/forum/downloads.php"; //direct path to your downloads.php script
$feedTitle = "Your-Site.co.uk - Latest Downloads"; //title you want for your feed 

3) Upload the files in the upload folder (downloads_config.php, downloads_rss.php)
4) Browse to http://www.your-site.co.uk/forum/downloads_rss.php to see it in action.

I'm sorry for how basic this is but my knowledge (especially when it comes to vB integration) is very limited.

I have also included a RSS button that you can use to spread the word for your feed.

The demo doesn't look right in firefox because I haven't added a css stylesheet.

It's easy to do. Here's a nice tutorial.

Yes it should work. It should work with any version really, you will just have to modify the table name or fields if they are different in earlier versions.

What error are you getting?

Yes I will add it next time I update it. But this is nowhere near my list of things to do at the moment.
