RSS not showing Author

Postby tenoch » Fri Aug 08, 2008 6:28 am

Hi
I Use Carp RSS to show 10 last post of my forum, on other web pages outside my forum, including in html pages

For this, I use the javascript option:
http://carp.docs.geckotribe.com/examples/js.php

I was using another rss mod for PHPBB3, and after post title, was showing the date, and author of the post

I have swiched to GYM Rss, because this mod gives the urls of last post rewrited

But what I notice, is that the author of the post is not showing, even when I have configured my script to show it
Only date

Thanks
tenoch

The profile link is added in the description when you activate it.
We did not yet use the rss author tag because we where wondering about how good it could be to provide with the user emails :
http://feedvalidator.org/docs/rss2.html ... OfLtitemgt
<author>lawyer@boyer.net (Lawyer Boyer)</author>

Would be a bit to much for the spammers to play with IMO.

We'll do some test to see if the feed still validates if we use something like :
<author>"URL of the profile on the source board" (nickname)</author>

Hi

Thanks for the Reply
But I have some doubt

When I was using another rss mod, the author was displayed with the RSS parser, without link, only text
Something like:
posted by tenoch

That's why I was asking why in this mod, the author was not showing like in other mods


Thanks a lot
Regards
tenoch

If the feed validates with the author name only (no mail) or with a link to the forum profile, then we'll add it in the future releases ;)

Any idea how to implement code from the phpBB3 mod in the GYM mod for phpBB2 in order to show the last poster?

Code: Select all
// Profiles
$lastposter = '';
if ($this->module_config['rss_allow_profile'] ) {
                  $lastposter = "\n" . $user->lang['GYM_LAST_POST_BY'] .  this->gym_master->username_string($forum_data['forum_last_poster_id'], $forum_data['forum_last_poster_name'], $forum_data['forum_last_poster_colour'], $this->module_config['rss_allow_profile_links']);


Code: Select all
$item_desc = $this->forum_cache[$forum_id]['forum_url_full'] .  $last_message . "\n" . $topic_stats .  $lastposter;

Why not converting instead, would be wise to consider at this point.

Not until my old heavily modded phpBB2 suffers from 3 SQL injection attacks per day (or so). ;)
