RSS - Adding more in the post?

[danielj]

I am using the auto rss feature in my forum. When using this feature each post only contains about 2 lines and then a link to the original article. Is there a way to add more
of the article to my post??

Many feeds provide snippets of text with a link to the full article because there might be a bandwidth concern but more likely those sites want traffic too. If you want lengthier RSS based posts, your goal is to find an RSS feed that provides more text. As for such feeds, maybe you can find something via a Google search.

Thanks, i was referring to the auto rss feature that is loaded into v3.6.7. Is there a way to
add more then a snippet or is this a result of the actual feed i may be using?

Like calorie said - it's the actual feed that you are grabbing. Those feeds only FEED snippets. The RSS reader in 3.6.7 will pull in whatever is FED. So there's no way to get more, unless you find a feed that feeds more.

Got it, i understand now. Thanks for the replies.

Articlebot RSS Feed Poster For vBulletin can go look at the site and pull more of the feed.

Other that that program, like the last two said, you are at the mercy of the admin broadcasting the feed
