    any way that this could handle multiple feeds?
  • Options
    +1 multiple feeds

    It also crashes a lot whenever odd UNICODE is present - any chance this could be redone using Magpie RSS?
  • Options
    Is there a way to make those feeds being seen by non signed-in users ?
  • Options
    Indeed, I removed the condition && $Context->Session->UserID > 0 in defaut.php line 314 - so everybody can see the feeds :)

    The feedreader renders escaped HTML.

    All of those *escaped* HTML characters render as code.

    That is, angle brackets are & lt ; (no spaces) and the HTML renders in the feed.

    Thanks to Stash for the pointer - my code now looks like the real thing - notice the escaped HTML. This escaped HTML renders in feedreader and actually displays maruqees and javascript popups on my messageboard.
  • Options
    Here's a helpful little utility for creating escaped HTML.

    P.S. the text area isn't coloured white...

    This seems to work for multiple feeds...

    //seperate feeds with a |
    $Context->Dictionary["FeedReader.URI"] ="http://myfeed.com/feed1.rss|http://myfeed.com/feed2.rss"


    Line 318
    /****************************************************************************** ATTACH LIST
    ******************************************************************************************/
    if (in_array($Context->SelfUrl, array("categories.php", "index.php", "post.php")) && $Context->Session->UserID > 0) {
    $uris = $Context->GetDefinition("FeedReader.URI");
    $uris = explode('|',$uris);
    foreach ($uris as $uri){
    $frr = new FeedReaderRender($uri, $Context->GetDefinition("FeedReader.CacheTTL"));
    $frr->attachToList();
    }
    }
