RSS Feed Importing

RSS Feed Importing

Does CodeIgnitor/Nova handle any RSS importing from external sites? If so what would I be looking at to create a page with an imported RSS feed?

I don't know what you mean.

Re: RSS Feed Importing

There was a mod written by someone in my org and this file/post is probably still here on the boards for SMS2 that used Magpie RSS to import an RSS feed from another site into SMS2 (RetrieveYahooArchive.rar).

Does Nova/CodeIgnitor have this ability?

Re: RSS Feed Importing

Nova used to have an RSS parser, but given the fact it was 350kb, it was removed. You'd have to search for a CodeIgniter RSS parser, include that and then extend controllers and view files to do whatever you're trying to do.

To make sure I'm reading this page properly and have it adapted for Nova. I'll take what is here

http://codeigniter.com/wiki/RSSParser/

name it MY_RSSParser.php and place it in application/libraries

Re: RSS Feed Importing

You can't use the MY_ prefix because the library doesn't exist in the core. Simply put it into application/libraries as is and use it as directed.

Re: RSS Feed Importing

Ok. Glad I asked as I would have been scratching my head as to why it wasn't working.
