RSS2 Feed Contribution

**chris21** · 18 Nov 2008, 11:24 PM

I have searched every where to find the answer, but I keep reading the same thing, and they either get resolved by the the person asking, but don't explain how it was fixed, or it has been missed by people who know the answer.
In the admin> RSS FEED> area, it asks for an image, do I put a path or just type in the input box jpeg, gif etc.

In the Readme file it says to
"5. You can add to tpl_footer.php or where you want:

<div id="RSSFeedLink"><?php echo rss_feed_link(RSS_ICON); ?></div>
"

Ok I did this in a few different places of the file and got this on the bottom of my site....
"Fatal error: Call to undefined function rss_feed_link() in /home/xxxx/public_html/includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_footer.php on line 66"

When I tried number 4 "4. You can add to html_header.php somewhere beetwen <head> and </head> tags:
<?php echo rss_feed_link_alternate(); // RSS Feed ?>"

my whole site disappears and get a fatal error message on the top of a blank page.

I'm very sorry about rehashing old questions, but I can't seem to find an answer to the stuff I know very little about.
Thanks for any help.
Chris.

You just put the name of the image like logo.gif

In the Readme file it says to
"5. You can add to tpl_footer.php or where you want:

<div id="RSSFeedLink"><?php echo rss_feed_link(RSS_ICON); ?></div>
"

Put it all the way at the bottom of your footer /includes/templates/your_template/common/tpl_footer

I had it working, everything was fine. But when I checked on it lately, I got this error:

XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity Location: http://majortek.com/index.php?main_p...d=new_products Line Number 2, Column 1:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
^

help? Please?

OK, This is odd. The RSS works just fine in Safari, but is broken in FF and MSIE. Usually it's the other way around.

I am a thousand times to answer this question - this is an error in your other files.

**majoritywhip** · 22 Nov 2008, 07:48 PM

Could you elaborate on which files it may be?

**a_berezin** · 23 Nov 2008, 11:25 AM

Apparently you did not understand me. How can I know what your files contain an error?
View all files are edited and added. Replace ended
?>
by
// EOF

I have a script that checks php-files on the extra symbols. Try to find it.

How I can fix it?
Thanks

Hello Everyone!

Worderful Mod, Andrew!

Regarding Post 463.

You reply that you fix it in Post 468. How did you fix it?

I did a search and I found this: http://feedvalidator.org/docs/warnin...mSelfLink.html

I used validator: http://feedvalidator.org and http://validator.w3.org/feed/

Can you help me correct it.

Thank you in advance!

This was nice and easy to install and works just great.

One thing though which i am having a problem with.

How do i remove the date a product was added to my shop from the RSS feed - I would rather the date a product was added is not visible.

Is this possible to remove ?

Grace38,

/includes/pages/rss_feed/header_php.php
line ~516
Replace

PHP Code:


date('r', strtotime($products->fields['products_date'])),

by

PHP Code:


false,

So, code must be:

PHP Code:


      $rss->rss_feed_item($products->fields['products_name'],

                          $link,

                          array('url' => $link, 'PermaLink' => true),

                          false,

                          $products_description,

                          $rss->_clear_url($products->fields['products_image']),

                          zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS,'products_id=' . $products->fields['products_id'] . $additionalURL, 'NONSSL', false),

                          (RSS_AUTHOR == ''? STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS . " <" . STORE_OWNER . ">" : RSS_AUTHOR),

                          false,

                          false,

                          $xtags

                          );
