Hi, Andrew,

Let's forget the San Fancisco guy:clap:

Really appreciated your wonderful mod, and all of us are eager to use your RSS 2.0, which would be powerful & perfect.

when it can be released?:smile:

Hi Jerry5763837,
I agree with you. And what are you waiting from next version? Maybe there are some suggestions?

Hi, Andrew,

Thanks for your patience.

We all know that you are the great author of RSS mod & Google Sitemap mod, which works well except little defective.

e.g. ,the last Googlesitemap mod version 1.3.19 still has problems, that is: all the pages have the same priority, which resulted in google warning.
please see at http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35187&highlight=google&page=74

Did your Googlesitemap 2.0 finished or not? Please PM me, it is important to me. mansy thanks.
Andrew, we are so lucky to use you mod.:clap:

Quick question. I searched the thread, but didn't find an answer. Is there a way to use the "buy now" button from my custom template instead of the default one? I'm not finding where the code could be modified for this and don't want to overwrite the template_default files at all...

Great Mod, btw!

Hello

The feed that is genreated on the site I'm working with has a problem in the feed where the infomation (title and description) for the wrong category is displayed

see http://www.wynsors.com/rss_feed.html?cPath=1&feed=categories

The first entry in the feed is for Womens Shoes which is category ID 2 whereas the feed is generated for category ID 1!

Any ideas?

Thanks

Andy

got everything working ok after modding the rss_feed.php file in extra_datafiles in relation to the missing & in the feed link (as detailed on page 50) so the feeds are showing in the footer correctly for each section ofthe site.

my problem is......when I create an EZ page to list all the feeds and drop the links in there for example:

index.php?main_page=rss_feed&feed=specials

for some reason Zen Cart removes the amp; in the link so it becomes:

index.php?main_page=rss_feed&feed=specials

which then doesnt work.

any ideas anyone?

I'm wondering if we can put the code to pull the url in there instead.

Hi, I have been trying to get this module to work on my website for a couple of days now.

On each product feed I have RSS_TITLE and RSS_DESCRIPTION
I am assuming this maybe because I haven't set a title or description?
I would do this if I could see any thing in the admin area. When going into the RSS settings nothing is displayed. I don't get of the settings that I have seen in previous posts.

Any ideas what could be happening?

Hi
I have problem by step with install.sql.

The page Install SQL patches displays:

9 statements processed.
ERROR: Cannot insert configuration_key "" because it already exists
Note: 1 statements ignored. See "upgrade_exceptions" table for additional details.

If I go to Admin>Configuration>RSS Feed, than I see only the empty table with columns: Title,Value,Action.

Zen Cart 1.3.8

This is exactly the issue I am having.

Could some one please advise?

I have installed this mod on one of my sites a while back and I remember there was an error in one of the codes that generates the feed, but this thread has gotten bigger and I am having hard time finding the code.

The issue I am having is when I go to generate the new products feed it will only generate the feed for the products that I had on the site before installing this mod. There is no feed generated for the products I added after this mod was installed. The same thing is happening on all the 3 websites I have this mod installed on.

Just an update on this error. This mod seems to have a typo in the classes file it will not add new products to your feed that you add after you install this mod.
The error can be found in the file: includes/classes/rss_feed.php
find around line 383 :```php
if ($time == false || (time() - filemtime(DIR_FS_RSSFEED_CACHE . '/' . $zv_file)) < $time) {

Replace with:```php
          if ($time == false || (time() - filemtime(DIR_FS_RSSFEED_CACHE . '/' . $zv_file)) > $time) {

This is a great mod! It works really well in FF, but not in IE. It creates a blank page. I have gone through the threads, but can't seem to find the fix.

Does anyone know how to get working in IE? or where the thread is?

Thanks,
Kim

It works in both FF an IE without any addition. Follow the instructions in the readme file. You might of missed a step.

I got it working. I messed up copy/paste from thread #515 with date change.

Thanks, Kim:clap:

Installed on a local server to test and everything was fine. Uploaded to my live server and got a 1064 syntax error.
Are there any fixes for this?

Sorry for being a noob, but how to align RSS icon to the middle of the footer instead of left corner?

Never mind. Looked it up from other Zenner store...

the answer is to add:

#RSSFeedLink
{
text-align: center;
}

to your "custom" stylesheet.css

Good afternoon all. I've installed this great contribution on my localhost, running version ZC 1.3.7 which has been stable for us for quite awhile. After installing, when I click the RSS button on the home page or go to any product page, I get a distorted page with these errors:

Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in C:\WAMP5\www\shopct137d\includes\classes\db\mysql\query_factory.php on line 114

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at C:\WAMP5\www\shopct137d\includes\classes\db\mysql\query_factory.php:114) in C:\WAMP5\www\shopct137d\includes\functions\sessions.php on line 108

I've uninstalled the database updates, and reinstalled, with same results. I installed Simple SEO Url a few weeks ago, and tried turning that off to see if it made a differenece, but no luck there, either.

I found in this thread where Adds had this same problem quite a while ago, but couldn't find where a solution was ever posted.

If anyone can help or point me in the right direction, it wwould be appreciated!

Thanks,

Thought for a while that the problem might be that my localhost (Using WAMP5) could be the problem, but I find here that others have installed this on their localhost server without any problem. Not sure where to go from here ... any suggestions?
