Removing full posts from feeds
 

I had a problem with content theft in the past, so i wanted to limit the content provided by vbulletin's rss feeds.

I didn't want to mess with the templates to avoid manual checks every time vbulletin updates and for the same reason i didn't want to edit php files. So i came up with this (really) tiny plugin which i hope you'll find useful.

1. Login to your admin panel
2. Expand Plugins & Products block
3. Click Add New Plugin
4. • Product: vBulletin
   • Hook Location: external_complete
   • Title: (anything you want, i entered Limit Feeds)
   • Plugin PHP Code (one line):
     PHP Code:

     ---

     $output = preg_replace('/(\<content\:encoded\>.*\<\/content\:encoded\>)/s', '', $output); 


     ---

5. Plugin is Active: Yes
6. Press Save

All done, now you just made content theft a bit more difficult :p

NO people who feed from YOUR forum, don't get full feeds. Atleast thats what it says.
