RSS2 Feed Contribution

[buildingblocks]

Hi

I downloaded and installed rss_feed_2-1-4.zip

It worked fine until I installed a different template. I re-uploaded the feed files making sure the appropriate file went into my new template folder, which didn't get it working.
I removed all installation files and uninstalled the sql.

Next I uploaded the files and then installed the install.sql. The feed icon is in the footer and generates the feed but I don't know what I'm missing to get it up in the address bar.

The feed icon image is uploaded and in the includes/templates/mytemplate/images folder.

This code

<?php echo rss_feed_link_alternate(); // RSS Feed ?>

has been placed in /includes/templates/mytemplate/common/html_header.php



The rss image is named in configuration.

Any ideas what I may be missing?

Ok, so in the meantime I went back and re-re-read the directions and this is step 2

2. Go to Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patches and install install.sql (don't use upload - use copy/paste to install sql).

Now, the first time I had rss mod working I can't remember if I had installed the patches along with the install.sql or not.

So I gave that a try to see it that was what I was missing.

Doing that took me a step backward. I get this error now when I try to do the install.sql

in part (cause it's humongous):

1062 Duplicate entry 'RSS_HOMEPAGE_FEED' for key 'unq_config_key_zen' in: [INSERT INTO zen_configuration (configuration_id, configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added, use_function, set_function)

The uninstall.sql isn't removing the patches I guess.

What is to be done now?

Please help.

Hi lieven23,

Andrew,
I solved the problems, errors and now my page is:
This document was successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional!

I see this code in the page bottom:

<!--bof RSS Feed -->
<div id="RSSFeedLink"></div>
<!--eof RSS Feed -->"

Strange extra quote.

Can you show me this php-code?

Very strange. Show me uninstall.sql that you use. How do you run it?

I fixed the problem in my tpl_footer.php file. there was an " too much at the end.
But unfortunatly the rss image still does not act as a link .

Hi Andrew

I paste the code into the input box and send it.

This is the uninstall sql found in the package

SET @configuration_group_id=0;
SELECT (@configuration_group_id:=configuration_group_id) FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title= 'RSS Feed' LIMIT 1;
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_group_id = @configuration_group_id AND configuration_group_id != 0;
DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_id = @configuration_group_id AND configuration_group_id != 0;
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key = 'RSS_FEED_VERSION';

Thanks

Some errors in your template - if you disable the css, then the link works fine.

Is there really no solution to my problem from posts #621, #622, #626? I would really like to get this mod working again.

Well hoooray

I managed to figure out how to manually delete the duplicate statements from phpmyadmin.

I got the rss sql added back to my database and the rss mod is finally working.

Hi Andrew I have a little problem for some reason. When my rss feed is set to products, and When I click the Rss Feed icon at the bottom of my page it just brings up the subscribe page with no content beside that. I don't know whats going on. It use to work. I haven't added any new modules. Thanks in advance.
