Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
Hello, I installed your plugin so my article images would appear in my RSS feed, but I have not had any success.
Here is the feed for my blog, but for some reason images are excluded:

thanks,

That’s strange. I tried installing it on my new site and it worked. You have activated the plugin? Have you made any changes in the code? Do you use upm_image?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
yes, its turned on, and I have not made any changes to code. I’m not using upm_image- but I am using the “hak_article image”, and “wet_article_thumb” plugins. Is UPM_Image required for the CSB Feed Image plugin?
I would greatly appreciate any advice or tips, been working on this rss issue now for quite some time.
Thanks,
Elstrausso.

No, upm_image is not required, but if you have specified more than one article image to each article it is required. Is that the case? If so, I can probably implement support for hak_article_image too.

You could try to install upm_image and see if it works.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
Hello.
Yes, I did give upm_image a try last night- I deleted “hak_article_image” from my code, and dropped in “<txp:upm_article_image />” and I had no success. Images were still missing. I’m not sure what the problem is. Can you offer any suggestions as to what could be preventing my images from being passed to the xml feed? I am using Excerpts… could that be an issue?
thanks,
Elstrausso

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
Of course, that’s it! :) I didn’t have excerpts in mind when I wrote the plugin. I don’t have much time to modify it right now but you can try to replace all $thisarticle[‘body’] with $thisarticle[‘excerpt’].

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
I have now updated the plugin to work with excerpts as well.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
hello – is it possible to use this plugin with soo_image instead of upm_image? i found soo_image to be really easy to use and fit my needs at the moment.
thank you.
Offline
Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
Maybe. How does soo_image work? How do you specify images to an article (like do you separate them with commas) and what tag do you use to output them in an article form?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
hmm i’m not really good at explaining this kinda stuff, but the how-to page”:http://ipsedixit.net/txp/55/soo_image-user-guide is really good and why i managed to work it out on my first try :)
i’ve got just the latest post using soo_image – morning prep
(the older posts just use linked images added to the body so they’ll show in the feeds and decided this has got to change!)
i’m using the tags below as image context:
<txp:soo_image_select listform="soo_image_listform" break="p" />
and to display the images:
<txp:soo_image link_rel="shadowbox" thumbnail="1" link="1" />
image article ids are seperated by commas.
thanks.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
hmm how odd, the thumbnail all seem to be showing in the feed now – need to verify, though.
i’ve also made another post but backdated it – will this actually show in the feed? thanks again.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] csb_feed_image - insert article image in feeds
You can also try to install upm_image because it shouldn’t interfere with soo_image. That way multiple images will work in the feeds as well.
