sql ?

[kosir]

Hey!

There is an error in the SQL file.

This is the corrected one:

ALTER TABLE `PLD_LINK` ADD `RSS` VARCHAR( 255 ) CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_general_ci NULL AFTER `URL` ;

In yours you have name of the table pld_links. I am not sure it probably works on windows but it doesn't work on Unix servers.

on windows servers table names are lower case
on linux servers table names are Upper case

I guess I have to make two versions from now on.

Thanks for pointing this out!

Hi

this snippet is exactly what i am looking for for my forum directory but it is not displaying the rss feed itself, only the url

Is it supposed to be that way?

Thanks

That is all this does.
if you want to display the rss feed itself, install this mod

Thanks Wesece.  Will this mod actually pull the rss information from the rss url the submitter enters or rss based on the category.

I am trying to put the "last 5 posts" in the detail pages of the forum listing from the site thats listed

[wesece]

this mod will pull from the rss url.

Hi,

First of all thanks for the great tutorial, that was exactly what I was looking for 
I really don´t know much about php and I was wondering if it would be possible to have the rss field also shown in the admin area? 
This would make it so much easier to update existing links.

I hope you can help.

edit dir_links_edit.tpl:

Find:

Code:

{validate form="dir_links_edit" id="v_URL_U" message=$smarty.capture.url_not_unique}
</td>
</tr>

after add:

Code:

<tr>
<td class="label">{l}RSS{/l}:</td>
<td class="smallDesc"><input type="text" name="RSS" value="{$RSS|escape|trim}" size="40" class="text"/>
</td>
</tr>

this will show the rss url when you edit a link in ACP

Perfect, thanks a lot
