CinVin vB Forum Feed Listing Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
[ BY REQUEST ]
This nifty little utility will present a list of all of your forums RSS feeds on one page! Your users can then easily pick & choose which forums they want to subscribe to via RSS, Google, Yahoo, or Bloglines. Ever go to a big site like CNN and view their page of RSS feeds that you can subscribe to? This is the same thing but for your vBulletin forums! In addition to your users, the search engine spiders will love this! We went out of our way to make sure that this CinVin vBulletin add-on was quick & easy to both install and modify!
DEMO #1: CinVin RSS Feeds (this is the 'stock' version) DEMO #2: Cool Sci-Fi RSS Feeds (this one has been integrated with vBa CMPS) FAQ's - What vB versions? This should work with all versions of vB 3.6.x and above. It should also work with vB 3.5.x but I have not tested it on that version. - Can I remove the "CinVin" text at the very bottom? NO! Believe it or not that little text is what allows us to work on hacks like this for free and, more importantly, to continue to support them. You are free to move the notice to your footer template, for example, if you would like to keep your notices all together but for removing it entirely a Branding Free license is available through CinVin.

I guess I was confused with the Which vBulletin usergroup should be used when displaying the forums? option. I thought it somehow controlled what usergroup could access the forums remotely using RSS feeds, as opposed to it being simply what forums on the list they could see. I'm a little green on this RSS stuff. I'm still stuck in the 60's with Fortran programming background. I assume that the reason any of the remote RSS feed agents only see posts that are available to Un-Registered Guests, is for the same reason? These agents can't read any post that is requires the user to be registered? Thanks... Regards, Badger Edit: BTW, do you do custom paid contract work, such as modifying the External.php to do what we need? |

I do some odd jobs but not a lot these days (the day job takes precedence). But, if I'm understanding your other post correctly, a think a plugin might handle what you're looking for. If I am interpreting it correctly you have a forum that might be named "Special Forum" that several usergroup are allowed to post into but when the RSS feed is generated for that forum then only threads from usergroup X should be shown. Is that what you're after? |

External Data Provider Usergroup/Cookie Setting 2.2 Once I installed that mod along side yours, I was able to read forums the way you describe, that previously gave me the error above with Tristana that require Registered(Usergroup 2) access. I still get the same error using Yahoo though. Tristana permits someone using their client to put in a username and password for each feed if required, but that function didn't I(and still doesn't) seem to make any difference in controlling whether it can open up and get access to any feed. This additional mod seems to do that through the "cookie" thing. Quote:
I know I'm explaining my needs badly, but in simple terms.... I would like our various members to have the convenience of using RSS, Yahoo, or the other agents you supported, to stay remotely in contact with new posts made on our site, BUT without having to go there in log in. I assume that's what RSS feeds are designed to do... a "push" kind of approach to data? Now, here's the catch ... I'd like them to have EXACTLY the same access permissions to view forums and posts remotely using whatever agent they choose, as they would have if they had logged on directly. Is that even possible? Thanks again for your support and feedback ... much appreciated. :up: Regards, Badger |

I have made the VBSEO edit.
I have an issue though: some of the RSS feeds work, but most of them don't? http://www.phonedevil.com/cv_rss_feeds.php Also, now that I have made the VBSEO edit, is that all I need to do for it to be compatible with vBulletin? p.s. a very good mod !! ...just make it work 100% for me please |

Will you release this hack in the 3.7 modifications forum as well?

I can but this version works perfectly fine under 3.7.x as well (I have not had to make any modifications to it on any of 3.7.x sites).

I've renamed cv_rss_feeds.php and also changed it in hack's control panel. However RSS button in footer still links to cv_rss_feeds.php and not the new one.
EDIT: Already solved here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=328 Thanks |
