Question Enhanced Kunena RSS Feed

Yes - this is from the lib/kunena.link.class.php file - this file may help you understand how it works



Happy to beta test or whetever is needed

There will be no new features in 1.5 (it's easier to stabilize without new possibly broken features), but we have already another tree for new features.

Better RSS feed would be nice addition, so..

We will look through user contributions soon.

If you can do this soon I am happy to make a donation for your time

Hi Everyone,

I'll try and have a version for you to test up tonight

With reference to the SEF support, the central link function GetSefHrefLink() in kunena.link.class.php still uses sefRelToAbs(). Joomla 1.5 has the JRoute::_($link,1) method. Setting 1 on the second argument of Jroute::_() causes XHTML-compliance by converting the & separators in the query string to &amps; on the fly, so even if seo-friendly-style SEF doesn't convert the rest of URL, the generated page can still pass W3C validation testing.

function GetSefHrefLink($link, $name, $title, $rel, $class ='', $anker='', $attr=''){
return '<a '.($class ? 'class="'.$class.'" ' : '').'href="'.JRoute::_($link,1).($anker?('#'.$anker):'').'" title="'.$title.'"'.($rel ? ' rel="'.$rel.'"' : '').($attr ? ' '.$attr : '').'>'.$name.'</a>';

Apologies if that's OT.

Okay so I took a detailed look at this tonight. The following code: is for the builtin Joomla SEF. I\'m guessing you\'re using the instructions from this thread to install the sh404sef plugin for Kunena. From my understanding, sh404sef will rewrite internal Joomla URLs on the fly to SEF URLs, correct? If so, why does the RSS feed need to have the SEF urls built in? It would seem that once you click on an internal URL in the feed, sh404SEF would pick it up and rewrite it as the SEF URL.

Edit. I got sh404sef installed on a test site and installed the Kunena plugin for it. When I checked the feed, it had the sh404sef URLs as the links. Isn't this the feature you're requesting?

Thanks
