RSS Parser
Posted Sep 25, 2012 - 8:49 PM:

Is there any way of customising the feed that RSS parser parses, using template variables. For example...

<!-- BEGIN http://myblog.co.uk/tag/{LINKTITLE}/feed/ RSS -->
<!-- BEGIN ROW -->
From {RSSDATE}:<br />
<a href="{RSSLINK}">{RSSTITLE}</a> - {RSSDESCRIPTION}<br />
<!-- END ROW -->
<!-- END http://myblog.co.uk/tag/{LINKTITLE}/feed/ RSS -->


The above doesn't work, but if it did it would fetch all posts from my blog that have a tag the same is the listing title. Very handy, but as I say it doesn't work.

Also, can you possibly make it so that your parser can parse images in RSS enclosure

Thanks

I would've thought the template variables would work actually, not intentionally but by the accident of how the code is ordered. Are you sure it's not a spaces/special characters problem? For example a title "two words" would break a URL because spaces need to be encoded as %20.

Can you give me an example of what an rss image enclosure looks like?
