RSS Feed problem
I would like to know what I would have to do to get my remote RSS feed from another site to display the descriptions in the feed.
Right now It will only disply the links in the feed
Running php-nuke 7.3
Im not exactly sure what it is you are asking but if I am guessing right you are asking about displaying rss feeds from other sites. If so then then im going to take a shot at this.
When displaying rss feeds you are only able to display what is given (usually the title only) a prime example of a site using rss feeds would be
http://pcprotectdotcom.com they use about 8 rss feeds they are all titled.
One reason for this is even though people like to share news they don't want to do it at the exspence of loosing bandwidth. Also you are at them ercy of what the publisher wants you to have. Some allow for a little more like the first couple sentences others not much other then the title.
The feed I get is from a gaming site that is specially made for our clan, it has title/link/descriptions for our upcoming matches. I did convert it over to javascript and it worked fine. I also wanted something that would scroll the other feeds that show the match results.
I ran across a rss news block and then modified the code in it like in the link below. (block is also at this site)
