enhanced RSS

[Norbs]

Hi Steven.

I tried to find my ways through but - as usual, I can't

I guess it's gotta be somewhere in rss.php, but what would I need where change to achieve something like in the attachment?

1. the RSS main title would start with the name of the section (based on the site hirarchy (folder-structure?)
2. Change color slightly for main title
3. I also would like to add something like "Rss Feeds" in the title (at the end?)
4. item titles have a flag in front
   

I was looking for but I believe there is no styling applied to the RSS, right, it's browser default.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

The RSS page is displayed according to the browser. It's not meant to be viewed by humans, only feed readers, so it makes little sense to make it look good with images and styling.

Changing the main title is okay. You can change it in Settings -> RSS, or if you want to add dynamic text to the title then this would be done in rss.php, line 89:

PHP Code:

<title>'.$settings->rss_title.'</title> 


Adding "RSS Feed" to the end would look like this:

PHP Code:

<title>'.$settings->rss_title.' RSS Feed</title>

Hi Steven

How have you been doing - been a while now...

Right, but Google Chrome, e.g., displays this
whereas on another, manual feed page I get this (after adding a XML stylesheet)

So I wonder, if i could somehow get a lingo to the stylesheet into the rss.php, that would animate viewer to go and read more.

You may try it - it makes better sense than my poor explanation .. ;-) http://chinabiz21.com/rss/rss_feeds.html

Hi Norbs,

Google Chrome doesn't support RSS. It surprisingly lacks that ability. However it can be added with an extension:
