[v1.6] Inferno RSS Forum Feeds Technology
Developer Last Online: Nov 2023
This hack was made purely by request, and the fact IPB will have a similar system as default functionality, i wouldn't like them to have a upper hand to vbulletin
v1.5 Updates: - Auto detect RSS settings system - Forum stats rebuilt correctly (last post info) v1.6 Updates: - Various bug fixes Description: This once added to your forum allows you to connect to any RSS feed you desire, once set up the system will automatically post data from the RSS feed into threads within a specified forum. Previews are available at the bottom, and an FAQ is built into the admin controls since I know not everyone will understand how to set up the options. Also an example to use a BBC UK News rss feed is below Example BBC UK News Feed: Feed Name: BBC UK News Feed Location: http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonl...t_page/rss.xml Feed Prefix: [BBC UK News] Feed From User: Assign users username of your own choice Feed Forum: Choose a forum you want threads to be posted into Feed Read Direction: Newest First Parent RSS Tag Name: channel Items RSS Tag Name: item Thread Title RSS Tag Name: title Thread Post RSS Construct: HTML Code:

If somebody had an idea how to resolve the problem with the special characters I would be grateful. Never realized how many of them are in a normale article. :ermm: |

Not sure why items from some rss feeds duplicate, unless their feed somehow shows an older news item as a different story altogether. I have looked at the feeds that did dup on me, and couldn't figure anything out. The only time it will dup for the feeds I use, is if we edit the article on the main site, thus updating the feed, so it would make sense that the script thinks it's a new item. I haven't looked at the code for this, but perhaps adding a check to compare the title against news already posted would resolve the dup issue, if it's not already in there. |

Awesome mod, thanks! I had a similar hack installed on my Invision board, and now I've got it back!
Question: Some feeds include HTML, and by default, I've turned off all HTML on all boards. Is there a way to have my poster account use HTML in posts, but not allow it for anyone else? |

Never mind I see that it is built into the software.

I get the same deal... but when I go to the actual Blog, they're there too... so I figured it's their problem. Oh and someone just released a plug that allows Usergroups the ability to use HTML. I changed it around to allow Usernames, so I just give my bot the ability to post HTML, so now people can reply to the articles without you worrying about them using HTML.

I have an older version of this hack installed and don't have HTML enabled, and the posts seem to be displayed fine were I grab RSS XML news from.

Sounds like it not checking for the feeds already being there, that's bad!
The earlier version I have installed for vbulletin 3.8 works fine and doesn't suffer from that problem. Well not so far! |
