for those having problems with the site giving you weird permlinks such as “domain.com//syndication-title”, I found the mistake for me to be that I simply used <a href=”<txp:permlink>” …><txp:title /></a> INSTEAD OF <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink>. The latter ended up working for me.
Weird – i wasnt using <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink> I was just using <txp:permlink> which i think is where the problem arose – using <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink> works, however <a href=”<txp:permlink>” …><txp:title /></a> doesnt seem to…

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
My thanks to both nasv and dai for posting your solution. It solved my problem that I posted sometime back. I too was using <a class=“title” href=”<txp:permlink />”><txp:title /></a>with frustrating results. The fix seems so obvious now.
Thanks again.

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
is there any way of making each feed write an individual article everytime its updated, allowing for commenting, etc?

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
I installed bit_rss today and I’m not sure whether I understand it completely.
I added the follow code in my home page (the default page):
<txp:bit_rss
feed="http://10.0.0.152/nb/rss"
/>
The result is that the last 10 articles are shown on the home page, according to the fields in the default rss form. But no link to a rss feed or whatever. What did I do wrong??

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
blueprint try <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink> in your form

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
Thnx for the quick reply, but this didn’t solve the problem.
Now I got the article titles displayed (with a link to the article) on the rendered page. What I want is only a link on the rendered page to a rss feed, and by clicking on that link Firefox 2.0 will display the rss xml. All I have is the content of the rss feed displayed on my rendered page and NOT the link to that content
The problem is that with me bit_rss is displaying the content of the default rss form on the rendered page, and not a link to the rss xml.

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
maybe you dont need this plugin to do what you want…why dont you just create a link like you would for any external link…

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
@blueprint, I think you misunderstand. You can use textpattern to create an RSS feed by default. bit_rss is for parsing other server’s RSS feeds and integrating them as articles into your own.
@dai, you need to turn off caching if you want to get what you want to do to work. the problem with that is that each feed will have to be fetched everytime someone loads the page…..that’s a drag.

Re: [Archived] bit_rss
@Walker
yes that is a drag, thats why i was thinking about adding them as an article and hence the db so as to stop the constant fetching – also just turning the caching off doesnt allow for commenting, which is a feature i would really like…it looks like alot of work, as im relatively new to txp, but im ok with php and i’m sure it can be done.
