Question Enhanced Kunena RSS Feed

Is it possible to parse HTML links to the RSS feed?

I need the links inside the RSS to get picked up by Twingly.

What feature are you looking for exactly? Parsing of links in posts to <a> tags? If so, this should already work if a link is prefaced with http: or www. However, you're right in that the current version does not parse the bbcode [ url ] tag to html. I went through and updated it tonight so that it does now parse [ url ] bbcode! I put an example in my RSS feed:
www.wiscollectorcar.com/forum.html?func=fb_rss&no_html=1
You can download the updated version from this post.

Let me know how this works.

Thanks,

G

Awesome, thank your for sharing! In german childboard have been asked for this feature: to reduce RSS to special forums only, that the user can choose.

Exactly this

Thank you very much! Really made my day!

Would you be able to do the same with another RSS file in Joomla? - For MyBlog component. It uses BBcode I believe. Want the urls to show in the rss feed (exact as in your last rss).

I've attached the file here, so you might see exactly what needs to be done. I have no idea how to do it myself

Thank you very much for helping with the Kunena RSS.

And thank you for may be giving this file a look.

OH...

Very important:

Can you make the Forum RSS to get the SEF urls in stead of the orginal urls?

Sure, I've made the necessary additions and attached the file here. Bear in mind, it is not tested but I believe it should work. This will parse all bbcode (including URLs) just like the Enhanced Kunena RSS Feed does.

I am not familiar with how sh404sef parses its urls, so I can't help you with this one. Moreover, I've seen posts on this forum that sh404sef with Kunena can take quite a toll on your server if you have thousands of posts. At least in my experience the builtin Joomla SEF component works fine for rewriting my URLs. I get something like /forum.html?id=1001011 .

That being said, I can tell you this. First, if sh404sef can rewrite urls on the fly e.g. via .htaccess and mod_rewrite, then it will absolutely work with this component. Just add rules to your .htaccess to rewrite internal kunena urls to whatever friendly url you like. Second, the other route is to modify the way the Kunena RSS Feed grabs its urls. Currently, this is controlled in this line: As you can see, the URL generation is handled internally by Kunena.
