Nope. Just checked. Title didn’t pass by default method either (unless I was doing something wrong). So, I guess if you can get the title of each feed link to pass to the Live Bookmarks properties (or whatever tool people use), you will be King. (still are, but you know what I mean) ;)

EDIT: Actually, I might be barking up the wrong tree. It’s the “Name” property in Live Bookmarks I was hoping to get filled by the title attribute of the feed, but maybe that’s not even possible or connected. Sure wish there was a way to do it though.

Well, here’s where it gets tricky. In order to do that, the url would probably have to be http://site.tld/journal/category/tips/rss, since there’s no way for me to know if the url you’re giving me is a clean url for an article titled ‘tips’ in section ‘journal’ or the category ‘tips’ within ‘journal’. Objections? (still not sure if it’s entirely feasible, but willing to look into it)

I think (in Firefox at least) it just pulls the page title for the page you’re currently viewing when you click the live bookmarks icon.

No, don’t bother just for me. I don’t use Categories in the URLs, which for me is a good thing as I seem to edit my Categories fairly regularly. I’ll stick to <code>http://site.tld/category/tips/rss</code>, which will be fine. Thanks again for this.

As for the title situation. I’m using Firefox/Sage. The only identifier in the “name” of feed link properties (in Live Bookmarks) that gets passed (no matter which feed link is being saved) is my site name, Wion Design, which is definitely not the name of my various Pages. The only place I have Wion Design written anywhere is in my admin preferences field for “Site name”. The site name is, of course, too generic for every feed title.

We hit a page break in the thread here, so in case you missed my previous post: I tried checking this title situation with default TxP feed link behavior (sans plugin), and it’s the same thing…no title of any kind is passed to the link properties in Firefox from TxP. FWIW

Well I’m glad to hear the plugin is working well. I did uncover one little bug in ajw_clean_feed_link: when sitewide=“n” under section top-level pages, it still gives the sitewide feed link. I’ll hafta fix that.

Re: feed titles in live bookmarks etc, hm… I wonder what dictates it, if it’s browser-specific or if there’s a way to override.

I’m experiencing this bug too. When do you plan to publish a fix?

Best regards,

Jochen

Wait… is that really a bug? Sorry — it’s been a while since I’ve looked at this thing — but “sitewide” implies a sitewide link, regardless of navigational context. Is this just revealing a need for some other attribute to control link output? I’m a bit confused.

Like the PlugIn, thanks a lot.

Just have a problem with using ‘Future’-Articles, they’ll not shown by the feed. Is there a simple possibility to include them into the feed? The thing is, that a feed for ‘events’ makes no sense without the upcoming ones. For displaying the future-articles i use <b>rss_suparchive</b>.

Andrew · 2006-04-19 15:20:00

Any objections to that feature as a default?

From all that I can see, it is! At least I understand the “sitewide” attribute as a switch between a feed of sitewide articles and a feed of articles of only the section currently displayed. Am I wrong?

Best regards,

Jochen

Andrew, plugin generates feed links only like: <code>site.com/rss/</code> regardless of section or category (or sitewide attribute too) we currently surfing in (normally should be <code>site.com/section/rss/</code>)

jagorny · 2006-08-24 06:07:37

I echo the same issue – not getting section root feeds… looking into the code though to see what I can muster up :)

It seems to me that the code used to determine what sort of rss feed being shown (clean feed) could also be used to determine a set of variables that could be used to populate the feed building link…

Basically running the reverse – assuming that there is no rss or atom atthe end of the URI, break it into pieces, look for the permalink mode, use that to break up the URI into the right components. I know it isn’t THAT simple but there’s got to be a way to do it.
