in rss_update.php:
FIND:
PHP Code:
$rss_title = html_entity_decode($rss_title, ENT_NOQUOTES);
$rss_description = html_entity_decode($rss_description, ENT_NOQUOTES);
ADD, ABOVE:
PHP Code:
$rss_title = strip_tags($rss_title);
$rss_description = strip_tags($rss_description);
that should fix HTML tags showing up in both the title and in the descritpion. i know about the way the feed is pulled, parsed, and posted. i will have to look into a work around so that it gets posted the right way and parses the RSS from the bottom up.
the function used to insert posts was one that vB already had built it. this uses the exact same function that vB does to insert posts. that also includes upping he post count and stuff like that. removing the post count would take some time. a quick fix for that is to make that forum not have post counts increase. but then any normal user that replies to a post won't get a post.
