Title: Newsfeed
Post by: Lost on April 11, 2009, 09:06:20

I'm trying to add a few newsfeeds to Elxis and encountered one that doesn't show any items:
http://www.australian-immigration-lawyer.com/visa/feed/rss2/

It only shows

Australian Immigration News

What You Need to Know About Australian Immigration.

The feed is generated by Wordpress. When you open the above RSS link in Firefox, it shows all items. Has anyone seen this before?

Maybe they just had a server glitch at the time that you tried.

It is a Domit problem. Domit has a well known problem opening some dynamically generated feeds (it has no problem with static XML feeds). It is an old library and it's development has been stopped... We are looking for replacing Domit with Simple Pie.

EDIT: I will soon attach here a newsfeeds patch for Elxis 2008/2009 that uses Simple Pie instead of Domit.

The patch is ready and you can use it on Elxis 2008.0/2008.1.
This patch changes the RSS Feeds manager from Domit to Simple Pie and updates component NewsFeeds.

Notice that it is not required to apply this patch on Elxis 2009.0 as Simple Pie is built-in in Elxis 2009.0.

Note: Add a YouTube feed to see what this baby can do ;)

Thanks for testing mate. It's still not working for me so I'll install the patch datahell released.

Awesome. Thanks for the quick patch, I'll give it a go and get back to you with the result.
