Re: [archived] tcm_rss - RSS feeds with any formatting

Yeah, I sent the Textpattern Resources folks what I thought was v2.0a a few months ago, but I think I actually sent them 1.0 or whatever they already have there.

I’ll send them the 2.0a zip for real this time.

Re: [archived] tcm_rss - RSS feeds with any formatting

Maybe this will help somebody? took me a few tries :)

I have my tag in my “page” template….
<code>
<txp:tcm_rss feed=“http://yourfeed.com/rss” form=“rss” />
</code>

You need the Magpie files installed like below…

textpattern/lib/rss_cache.inc
textpattern/lib/rss_fetch.inc
textpattern/lib/rss_parse.inc
textpattern/lib/rss_utils.inc
textpattern/lib/extlib/Snoopy.class

My rss form is really simple like below…
<code>
<h2 class=“news”><txp:title /></h2>
<txp:body />
</code>

Was answering a post on a previous page before I figured out it had been answered already? =)
Figured this might help someone out anyway?

I still haven’t got the cache working though? Have tried just about everything?

cheers

Re: [archived] tcm_rss - RSS feeds with any formatting

Problems with $GLOBALS

I had to comment out the following line to get tcm_rss to work:
//unset($GLOBALS[‘thisarticle’]);


From here to there and there to here funny things are everywhere.

Re: [archived] tcm_rss - RSS feeds with any formatting

Is anyone using this on their site so I could see it in action?

Re: [archived] tcm_rss - RSS feeds with any formatting

I abandoned tcm_rss in favor of bit_rss a couple months ago, but the concept is the same. My implementation is pretty simple: I pull headlines from one site and display them in the sidebar of another.

In action here (right side, bottom of the list).

Re: [archived] tcm_rss - RSS feeds with any formatting

RHD, yes after playing around with both of them I found bit_rss to have more bells and whistles.

Also, SimplePie has their own Textpattern plugin that I’m also testing.
