When using joomfish, just change the feed link in the content item translated.

i am using kl_rssfeed to post RSS feeds from GigCalendar for individual artists on my record label's web site.
after changing the default from '$bot_params->def( 'items', '11' ); to $bot_params->def( 'items', '100' );
i get this weird bullet between the entries within the feed.
see:
http://hightwo.com/htwo/index.php?optio ... view&id=21
http://hightwo.com/htwo/index.php?optio ... view&id=17

anyway I can eliminate that? is that coming from kl_rssfeed or from my own .css?

any ideas?

'

Quote:

kl_rssfeed' AND folder = 'content'";
$database->setQuery( $query );
$kl_id = $database->loadResult();
$mambot = new mosMambot( $database );
$mambot->load( $kl_id );
$bot_params =& new mosParameters( $mambot->params );
$kl_params = array();
$kl_params['chtitle'] = $bot_params->def( 'chtitle', '0' );
$kl_params['chdesc'] = $bot_params->def( 'chdesc', '0' );
$kl_params['chsrc'] = $bot_params->def( 'chsrc', '0' );
$kl_params['itemsrc'] = $bot_params->def( 'itemsrc', '0' );
$kl_params['image'] = $bot_params->def( 'image', '1' );
$kl_params['title'] = $bot_params->def( 'title', '1' );
$kl_params['desc'] = $bot_params->def( 'desc', '1' );
$kl_params['item_one'] = $bot_params->def( 'item_one', '1' );
$kl_params['items'] = $bot_params->def( 'items', '100' );
$kl_params['word_count'] = $bot_params->def( 'word_count', '100' );
$kl_params['span'] = $bot_params->def( 'span', '0' );
$kl_params['cache'] = $bot_params->def( 'cache', '3600' );
$kl_params['class'] = $bot_params->def( 'class', '' );
$kl_params['debug'] = $bot_params->def( 'debug', '0' );

Can your plugin work with multilanguage site ?
Have you think about ?

Hey Dr. Life, why not just install this mambot and start using it?
I can tell you that anything that imports RSS feeds into your joomla content database has a couple of issues:
1) It's not very cool to show other people's content (Yahoo, AP news, etc.) as 'your own' in your site
2) Importing content automatically into your site is a dodgy idea, it could cause some problems

KL_rss is very simple and pretty cool.
Any page you want to enrich with some titles from an RSS feed, you just drop it in there and the list of items shows up.

This works with social bookmarking site RSS feeds as well.
So, say you write an article about windsurfing in the Mediterranean (ES | IT | EN)
At the bottom you say, "See these useful links" and you make for each language a KL_RSS link to delicious
Tags: (using the popular feature)
windsurfing italy or surf italia
windsurf espana
windurfing uk

Now you have always changing, dynamic links to enrich your article, and you don't have to worry about monitoring it.

If you IMPORT stuff as some of those other components do, you have to worry about content date, security, where it shows up on your site, if it pushes other important stuff out of the way, etc. it's just a lot more work and thinking .

The link is wrong:

http://news.google.com/news?ie=UTF-8&q=%22marin+county%22+italian+-restaurant+-sports+-%22death+row%22+-catholic+-coroner&output=rss

But my hack chokes on all google feeds.
We have to wait for the help I asked for, sorry.

Not sure what you mean by "The link is wrong" ?
I just tried it, I get xml of the news, and if I put it in Sage or any other RSS newsreader, including netvibes, works fine. I get all the titles of the news from Google.

Did you hear back from your friend if these google rss feeds can be made to work.
I guess a simpler one to test the concept is just as well.

10-4 Thanks so much. I have it working now.

Excellent Work, Very Good! I use.

If there is way to deceive the mambot to use {kl_rssfeed} out of content Item, please, help me. I have a very important project, that will be good to use in file PHP.

Hello infograf,

I'm having a problem with one feed which returns the error message "Limit parameter is not a recognized value".
It's the Smartfeed MOD of phpbb.

Is your component modifying the parameter list of feeds or something like that?

The error message is really 'interesting'

thanks,r.

Please post here the exact url of the feed.
Rule of thumb: if it does not work with the Joomla Newsfeed component, it will not either with kl_rssfeed (updated).

I am modifying a MODULE so that he lists RSS registered in cadastre for users. Thus it has Link of the registered in cadastre site and below the reading of the RSS. Then I try to place and it does not function.

$URL_RSS_SITE = row->url_rss;

(it pardons my English made with Babel Fish)

how do I install this [Edit Mod: Watch your language]? what tags do I use to include content?

infograf768 · **Posted:** Fri Sep 29, 2006 5:36 am

@migumbo

1. watch your language. Not nice in a first post...
2. Read the whole thread and you'll get the answer to your question.
kl_rssfeed is a mambot.

Chinaman · **Posted:** Sun Oct 01, 2006 8:48 am

great work on a nifty mambot btw. I understand how to use the mambot itself and have gotten the test url to work on my page within an article already. I am however having a lot of trouble getting it to work with a few sites I will include below.

http://feeds.feedburner.com/harrowdrive
http://www.cricinfo.com/rss/Australia.rdf

In particular I'd like the first link to work. The page author has given me two more direct links to his content included below:
http://www.harrowdrive.com/?feed=atom
http://www.harrowdrive.com/?feed=rss
http://www.harrowdrive.com/?feed=rss2

Obviously atom doesn't work, but the rss2 and rss links work within newsfeeds on my site elsewhere. However when i use your mambot I get an empty content item.

any help would be greatly appreciated!

{/tabs}

will that work ?
thanks for looking into this

infograf768 · **Posted:** Sun Oct 08, 2006 4:56 pm

The 2 feeds work perfectly here on PHP 5.
They may not work on PHP 4.

I'll try another time with the Tag bot which I do not have on my test site.

krautela · **Joined:** Mon Sep 25, 2006 1:14 pm **Posts:** 42

yes u r right... works perfectly on php5 which i have on my laptop.. but the site is dependent on hosting firm and they i think still have php4..
would be nice if it could work with php4 as well

krautela · **Joined:** Mon Sep 25, 2006 1:14 pm **Posts:** 42

the other thing about tab plugin. that doesnt work still. i mean that the feeds dont go into the tabs but spill out .. ( this is php5) in php4 still the feed is gibberish

Where may I download this Tab bot?

Ok I finally got some RSS feeds to sort of work. Though figuring out how Joomla really works is my biggest problem right now. I would like to try yours though because AJAX is not working.

The Ajax reader shows up, but blank as you can see. http://www.nightingales.net

I am hoping that kl_rssfeed might be a little easier to use but have NO idea hot to actually integrate a mambot into the content. I did successfully install it however. Now what? For examply if I wanted to use it, to add an external RSS feed to my "Welcome" message on the front page. I dont even know if I did that welcome message in the right spot. By process of ellimination I simply replaced what was in one of the existing Newsflash items, and renamed it. So technically, its a Newsflash item. Within the Item there is a Intro text and a Main text window with lots of buttons. Do I add some code in there to access the klfeed bot?

I need step by step instructions I guess. I have messed scripts and the sort and am a systems administrator but this is my first time working with Joomla. Maybe I am making it too complex in my head. Things just dont seem to show up where I want them too.

Any help appreciated...

That tab bot is excellent! Thanks a lot for the link.

It works OK here with kl_rssfeed (and PHP5). See picture.
Usage is:

Code:

{tab=first tab}
{kl_rssfeed items="10"}http://corp.naukri.com/mynaukri/mysearchrss.php?searchtype=advance_page&othersrcp=2727&searchloc=rss&type=all&strcat=(INDTYPE%20='37')&companyid=&redirectpage=1&cntquery2=0&cntquery1=515&temp_jobs=&hotjobs=&id=&detailed_res=1&username=&roleidsform=&nor{/kl_rssfeed}
{tab=second tab}
{kl_rssfeed items="5"span="div"}http://corp.naukri.com/mynaukri/mysearchrss.php?searchtype=advance_page&othersrcp=2727&searchloc=rss&type=all&farea[]=8&companyid=&redirectpage=1&cntquery2=0&cntquery1=515&temp_jobs=&hotjobs=&id=&detailed_res=1&username=&roleidsform=&nor{/kl_rssfeed}
{/tab}

Hey, I was wondering if you could help me with a problem. I installed kl_rssfeed no problem, but I get a 'restricted access!' message when I try and edit it in Mambot Manager.

Never mind, as soon as I hit 'Post' the answer came up. Thanks.

I've installed it, but there's something not quite right. The feed link is correct, but the title and content is just called "utf8_decode".

Any ideas?

You are using Jomla 1.0.8....

Title explains pretty well this from 1.0.9 up.

AND please update ASAP. Many security matters have been taken care of since the older 1.0.8
