Post subject: new version find
there is a new version to the mod
FIND - Forum Integrated News Delivery - Inpu
http://thecomichaven.com/viewtopic....6c6b9dd15b17ad8
## MOD Name: FIND - Forum Integrated News Delivery - Input
## Author: Hacksaw - The Comic Haven
## MOD Description: Delivers rss / xml newsfeeds direct to your forums.
##
## MOD Version: 1.2.0 beta
## Installation Level: Intermediate
## Installation Time: ~ 15 Minutes

FIND v1.2.0
Saturday, March 24, 2007

What is new in FIND v1.2.0?

1. Restructured file layout to remove /mod directory and fix compatibility issues
with some mods that assume relative file location from root directory.

2. Fixed multiple post issue caused by html entity conversion in the MySQL
database.

3. Fixed a Windows-1252 character set parsing issue as this encoding is not
handeled bu the PHP XML parser.

4. Added forced character set decoding option for incoming RSS feeds when the
encoding in the XML header does not match the contents of the file.

5. Added additional URL parsing to remove base URL from complex URL used on
Google and Yahoo. This should fix some additional, but not all URL display
issues.

6. Added additional formatting options to allow for more optional data fields to
be include/excluded.

7. Added the ability to strip all content images from a post.

8. Added ability to strip brackets and containing content from the topic line
of a post.

9. Added ability to add a prefix to the topic of a post.

10. Added expandable "bird beaks" to table entries in the admin page to reduce
the number of columns visible in the table. Details can now be viewed by
expanding the individual line items.


What is new in FIND v1.1?

1. CURL support for downloading RSS feeds.

2. Stripping of HTML and bbcode from the topic line to stop formatting errors
later in the page.

3. Conversion of UTF-8 characters in RSS feed content to ISO-8859-1 which is
the phpBB2 default character encoding. This will fix issue with garbled
characters in RSS output (see http://www.phpbb.com/kb/article.php?article_id=308
for more information).

4. Replacing HTML with equivalent bbcode in the body of the post and parsing of
google/yahoo specific URL encodings. This is basic parsing support, but hooks
are in place to provide more advanced features as I have time. Please send me
the source files of rss feeds that break this feature.

5. New HTML formatting option for message output (I like using tables inside
the post for additional formatting). No bbcode is used when using this
feature.

6. Expanded XML tag support for RSS/RDF/ATOM feeds. Added more fields (pubDate,
creator/author, content) and iTunes podcast support. I still need to add atom
support.

7. Remote invoke of news_insert.php using an authorization key. This permits
a cron job on a remote server to invoke the insert operation (my hosting
service does not give me access to cron).

8. Cleaned up the administration screens, including adding configuration
options for new features. Added retrieval of status information from
thecomichaven.com to notify of new versions and bug fixes.

There are a few more changes, but that covers the big ones.

Post subject: Re: Forum Integrated News Delivery
Yes i knoe

But it's a beta, when the mod-db of phpbb comes back and aproves it, i'll test it.
The versio i use here it's a the latest version on the mod-db


casimedicos [ Fri 01 Jun, 2007 11:27 ]
Post subject: find
yes but your version is too old (2003)
and have a lot of bugs, or problems with special characters and pages and rss not utf 8
letters like ñ, accents etc.... are lost
and in spanish or other non english pages this is a big problem...

but it is only an idea
thanks for your great work

There it's a block inside acp where u config the RSS, after that, you have another block where u push "get news" and the robot read the rss and post each single news of the rss as a post

OK, answering my own question here... I was mistaken, as it looks like this wasn't ever ported into the IP package. Maybe we can lure Luca into integrating this into the next release of IP? Unfortunately, I don't think this will work under any version of IP (other than the versions that Zuker has tested it with). So, if I were you I would just un-install this add-on, or hold out until the developer(that being Zuker) can come up with an update, so that it will work with the latest IP. IMO, I think this add-on could be extremely useful for many people, and if you ask me, I think it should already be included in the default package of IP. Just my 2 cents. :)


darkasylum [ Fri 18 Jan, 2008 19:07 ]
Post subject: Re: Forum Integrated News Delivery
yes i agree think it should be included in the default package of IP , do any one on this board have it working under ip,
i have PM ever one but no one has got back to me,
mabye the Mighty Gorgon would install it? as part default? extremely useful for 100 people, and if you ask me,

how about it? pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssse :shock:

thanks for giveing the time to answer, the question does not work on IP well that would answer why the hell i cant get it to work. lol

this thread has had 3036 views so i think it safe to say theres a few ppl that may like to see it in IP by default.
any one else like to see this by delault?

and ones again Zuker thanks for all your hard effort!

i will go back into the west and wait !

and again thanks

Hi Xmenfile,

Try uploading all the files in the package again. After that, try making the database changes again.

I had this mod installed on the previous versions of IP, including RC versions, and it always worked. I bet you have a file missing from the includes file from the package.

Hope that helps!

Post subject: Re: Forum Integrated News Delivery
Oh, I didn't know Xmen was receiving that error via the ACP by clicking on "NewsFeed Sources."

You're going to have that problem Xmen. I have the problem as well, but all that page really does is give you a few examples of sites that have RSS content you can deliver to your website. Before I found IP, I was using ezPortal and had FIND installed there as well. "Newsfeed Sources" in the ACP didn't work for me then either. All you need is the "Input Newsfeeds" function and your set.

Question 2 could you post if possable were all your files are for Integrated News Delivery ? in ICYP(please)

thanks for all your help!

I am using FIND v1.2.0.

I'm not sure what you are asking in your second question, but I will type out where I put each file from FIND v1.2.0 in my IP:

Spoiler: [ Show ]


I hope this is what you meant by your question.

Xmen, are you talking about http://smartor.is-root.com? It's been down for quite some time now so a lot of folks that use ezPortal are using the phpBB.com forums for support. It was a good portal but it doesn't match the quality and ease of use of the Icy Phoenix CMS. One day those ezPortal users will find IP. :mryellow:

I think I see the problem. In includes/constants.php, you searched for the correct line to start editing, but you found the wrong one. There are two "// Do not insert anything but tables below!" references inside includes/constants.php. Search for the first reference of it and make the correct addition to the code. It should look like this:
Spoiler: [ Show ]


It looks like you edited language/lang_english/lang_main.php correctly. Just make that change in includes/constants.php and you should be set.

That's crazy man! I have no idea what could be causing that problem now. Hopefully someone else here has some ideas.

Good luck.
