Hi all

 

I have just installed 04.00.01 and looks great.

 

However, I wanted to add a new feed to my opml file and although the title appears just fine, when it comes to the description text it just show

[[description]]

 

Can you help me here a bit? The feed is the following

 

 feed://www.feed-project.eu/rss.aspx

 

Thnx in advance

I'm confused, but that's normal for me.  I'm not sure what you mean by wanting to add a new feed to your opml.  Also, the feed link you give gives me nothing, however, when I use this one:

http://www.feed-project.eu/rss.aspx

I can see an RSSv2.0 feed using custom namespaces.  (I view the source to inspect it)

<rss version="2.0"
    xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
    xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005"
    xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss">
    <channel>

Now, where the trouble seems to be located is in the item description elements.  This tag is using a custom namespace descriptor cf:type, which will not translate using the default xsl in the News Feeds (RSS) module newest version.   So, whenever a xsl encounters a tag it doesn't understand it will by pass it.

        <item>
            <title>FEED Review, Brussels</title>
            <description cf:type="html">FEED Intermediate Review,&amp;nbsp;30&amp;nbsp;January 2009,&amp;nbsp;Brussels</description>
            <pubDate>Thu, 29 Jan 2009 22:00:00 GMT</pubDate>
            <link>http://www.feed-project.eu//Default.aspx?page=newsdetail&amp;ListID=30&amp;RowID=22</link>
        </item>

I lost my test environment at home, so I can't double check this situation.  However, when I check the feed using Xselerator and using the default.xsl to render it, it works, so maybe that's not really the issue.  Let me know if the link is correct, and if all of the descriptions appear that way for you.  Also, tell me how you set up the module.

 Hi there and thanks for the reply

 

Actually you are right, you have the correct URL.

 

Here is also my opml  file  http://skoussouris.googlepages.com/feeds-v2.opml

If you use it, then you will see that the page renders somehow like that

 

AMCIS Conference, San Francisco

FEED Review, Brussels

[[description]]

 

 

Could it be because the publications dates are wrongly placed in the future?

Or is it just the cf:type thing?

I tried using the http://skoussouris.googlepages.com/feeds-v2.opml in the module, and it does not load. 

Feed 'http://skoussouris.googlepages.com/feeds-v2.opml' could not be loaded. Error: The element 'channel' has incomplete content. List of possible elements expected: 'title, link, description, language, copyright, managingEditor, webMaster, pubDate, lastBuildDate, category, generator, docs, cloud, ttl, image, textInput, skipHours, skipDays, rating, item' as well as any element in namespace '##other'.

The new module is supposed to work for OPML, but it's not working for this one.  You might want to add it to the list of feeds not working in the thread at the top of the News Forum, 'Post Your Broken Feeds Here', to have Peter check into it.

For the other feed, it is showing up 2 items w/o issue.  (See example)

So, not sure what is going on for your implementation.  Can you tell us about your configuration and news module setup?

 Well for me it is working normally!!!

 

That's why I did not put it in the broken feeds, everything seems fine, expect the one feed that I mention.

I have not used any special configuration. Just installed the module and then add it to a page. And then in the settings I've choosen the feed I mention before.

 

You can check the module here http://www.ep-momentum.eu/  (it's in the first page) and also find a bit more on eParticipation in case anyone is interested :)
