The links to external.php in your /forums folder is part of vBulletin and comes with it. When you view your RSS feeds the generic link would be
http://www.saviour-pc.com/forums/external.php. You can then pass parameters into the script by putting them in the URL. For example, if your forum visitors knew that your Other forum had a forum ID of 54 then they could see the RSS feeds only from that forum by using a URL like
http://www.saviour-pc.com/forums/ext...hp?forumids=54 directly.
This script (the "CinVin vB Forum Feed Listing") is simply a listing of all of your forums that links to the external.php script that comes with vBulletin. Think of it is as a mini 'site-map' with a quick link to the individual forum RSS feeds.
That is why if you said you were having a problem while viewing cv_rss_feeds.php then it is a problem with this script but if you are seeing strange results while viewing the actual RSS feed that it links to, (eg:
http://www.saviour-pc.com/forums/ext...hp?forumids=54) then it is unrelated to this script so it does nothing more than points to it. For example, when somebody mentioned earlier that when they changed the name of cv_rss_feeds.php in the ACP but the automatic button in the footer didn't change as well then that is a problem that I missed but seeing BB codes in the actual RSS feeds is unrelated to anything with this script (cv_rss_feeds.php) since the feeds are generated by external.php and is a stock vBulletin script.
I
try to help out with any questions that people might have with problems/issues related to the stuff I release but when it comes time for stuff like "
Why are BB codes showing up in the RSS feeds generated by external.php?" then that is something that the vBulletin support guys should really be handling.
