(Version 7.0.0b1 rv323)

I'm not 100% on RSS Feeds,
but my classic forums hook up on them and
i would like to implement that into v7

When i visit the New RSS feed link
i dont get any of the code tags?
Just a page of unformatted text (Trying to be RSS).

Yeh i know classic runs on RSS 1.0 format,
but i do hook up on RSS 2,0 Format Sites too.
As i have a parser that does this for me.

This is My Classic Rss feed Page Classic v1 Rss
This is a v2 Feed i hook up on ITV Motor Sport V2 Rss
And this is threads v7 Rss v 2.0 Threads 7 Rss v 2.0

If i view the source code of my RSS from threads,
its looking more like a feed?


Like i say ive always found RSS a little confusing at times,
but it doent seem right.


Could you drop the "CEST" after the date and time?
I'm in the United Kingdom and CEST is confusing.

your .t7 rss feed looks fine to me, i don't see any "plain text" outside of the proper tags...

Also, the CEST is a part of the RSS guidelines, it has to list the full date in the specific area with the timezone location... By removing it, you're not following rss guidelines and thus will have an invalid feed...

Now that i have returned and clicked on the link
i provided Yeh it does look fine.

But it didnt at first??

I struggled with it for 15 mins,
then ive been out and come back to check
any replies (Cheers Gizmo).
3hrs +


-----

CEST

But i'm GMT blush
So its not hooking up on my time zone i'm thinking?

GMT = Greenwich Mean Time
CEST = Central European Summer Time


Now ive got it lol.....

I thought CEST was some kind of Central Eastern Standard Time
Over in the land of the fearless (America - Washington ) lol

OOOooooooo The Shame sick

Okay but there was an issue at first reading the RSS?
I will keep an eye on this for future Ref smile

As mark scampers away... blush blush blush

It will return whatever your servers default timezone is. It'd be near impossible for it to relay your personal timezone preferance as you'd have to bbe logged in to see your timezone preferance.
