Hi everybody,

I built a DNN module that implements ISearchable. Everything is working fine. All items appear in the search results and in the RSS syndication results.

The problem is that when I click in one search result that points to my module the link includes the ItemID that lets me show the item detail page (or panel) - that's what I want - but when I click in one of the syndication links, the link doesn't include any parameter.

I'm including the parameter I want in the guid and it does appear inside the item tag when I see browser source code of the rss.aspx that DNN generates. When I click in the RSS link it just points me to the page with my module but doesn't have any parameter so I have no way of knowing what Item to show.

Here's what I'm calling: SearchItemInfo("Title", "Description", 1, [DATE], ModInfo.ModuleID, "DUVIDAS_" & ModInfo.ModuleID & "_" & ItemID.ToString(), [CONTENT], "ID=" & ItemIDToString())

Please can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong or if this is a DNN bug? Thanks a lot!

Ok ,I had that idea (specially because the isPermaLink parameter of the guid tag is omited so it should be set to its default value = true) but both IE, Firefox and Outlook 2007 Feed readers only use to the link tag.

This is very frustrating, mainly because the main purpose of ISearchable implementation the module is the RSS feed and not the DNN search. Isn't there anyway i can change the link tag of the RSS.aspx that DNN generates?

Thanks for your help anyway.

Depending on how dedicated you are, you could potentially replace/augment the current RSS handler and then replace it.  If you look in the web.config, the RSS handler is wired up in the system.webServer/handlers and system.web/httpHandlers sections (just search for "RSS").  If you copy that class into a new one and alter it to do what you need, you should just be able to adjust your web.config and use your updated handler.  You will, of course, need to make this change to the web.config after every update of your website, but otherwise it should work pretty seemlessly for you.

Hope it helps,
