RSS Output (Format)

[Allenport]

Hey I was wondering if anyone knew how to edit the RSS output from the forums?

http://www.jjpbphotos.com/
Under News Feed I would like to be able to edit the Info and format it better. Is this possible?

Thanks

JJ

Example
How it is now:

{Thread title}
Forum:{name of forum}PostedBy:{username}
Post Time:{Date} at {time}
{Random date i have yet to figure out}

How I would like it

{Thread title}
<b>Posted by:</b> {username}
<b>Posted:</b> {Date} <b>at</b> {time}

--------------- Added [DATE]1254285527[/DATE] at [TIME]1254285527[/TIME] ---------------

You've used some modification to output that information onto that page. You need to ask this question in that modification thread - they will tell you how the feed is formatted and where you should go to edit it.

Thats just an RSS feed reader. I know for sure that the output context is in the "/forums/external.php" part of VB im just trying to figure out the formatting (PHP Noob here) Im pretty sure its this line though"

$output = '';
$headers = array();
if ($vbulletin->GPC['type'] == 'JS')
{ // javascript output
$output = "
function thread(threadid, title, poster, threaddate, threadtime)
{
this.threadid = threadid;
this.title = title;
this.poster = poster;
this.threaddate = threaddate;
this.threadtime = threadtime;
}
";
$output .= "var threads = new Array(" . sizeof ($threadcache) . ");\r\n";
if (!empty($threadcache))
{
foreach ($threadcache AS $threadnum => $thread)
{
$thread['title'] = addslashes_js(htmlspecialchars_uni($thread['prefix_plain']) . $thread['title']);
$thread['poster'] = addslashes_js($thread['postusername']);
$output .= "\tthreads[$threadnum] = new thread($thread[threadid], '$thread[title]', '$thread[poster]', '" . addslashes_js(vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $thread['dateline'])) . "', '" . addslashes_js(vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $thread['dateline'])) . "');\r\n";
}

I just need to figure out how to add HTML context to that <b></b> and <br>'s

external.php is the feed for the vbulletin site - it simply sends out info, it doesn't format it.

I looked at your page source and the News Feed in that page is from this line:

 <p><script type="text/javascript" src="http://output73.rssinclude.com/output?type=js&id=35581&hash=f4530fc18a9f396df35a762a8d231105"></script>

That is what you need to edit.
