RSS Feed

Permalink
We have a news feed that shows titles and intro content then links to the main story. The client wants a RSS Feed when creating new news stories. Is this hard to do in c5? Could someone point me in the right direction?

I created SimpleNews just for that purpose.

Ahhh, we had this outsourced. At the time your block wasn't in the marketplace. :( Is it hard to add a RSS Feed to a block?

This is also very easy to do with the core Page List block.

This is a good idea. Maybe I can utilize what they did and add it to the block.

Would it be possible to just have the page list block and direct which table and row I want the rss feed to show up from the database?

ex: I have the page list block on a page and when you click on one page it shows the rss feed to a certain category in the database table. (all the stories in that category)

The 'non-modifying-code' solution would be to put your news items into category folders then pull the feed for the page-list relating to the top level folder of that category.

You could also code some custom templates of the block and utilize a custom page attribute as well.

Okay I've implemented the rss feed into the block but its not outputting anything. I'm running out of ideas, could someone help me trouble shoot this? Its telling me that "You don't have permission to access this RSS feed"
