This mod will import RSS feeds as new topics. You can specify which forums the topics are posted to, and who posts them.

Installation file is included in zip. Upload the files following the structure I created in the zip.

Example: [Link Removed]

A version for 7.4+ can be found here.

Is there an upgrade script as well, or do we need to alter tables manually?

I made a mistake when entering RSS feeds that didn't have any existing data on them ie: future RSS outlets that haven't been used. The program stopped visiting any additional RSS URLs entered in the list the second it found a URL with absolutely no data on it.

So when setting up RSS feed URLs make sure they have existing data on them. When it hits a null it just stopped polling past that url. Other then that this is an oustanding mod..

Thanks so much Ian Spence smile

Totally unfamiliar with PhpAdmin I copy n pasted this:

Code
CREATE TABLE %%TABLE_PREFIX%%TOPIC_FEEDS (
FEED_ID int(4) unsigned not null auto_increment primary key,
USER_ID int(9) unsigned not null,
FORUM_ID int(9) unsigned not null,
FEED_URL varchar(255),
LAST_BUILD int(11) unsigned not null default '0',
LAST_TOPIC_TIME int(11) unsigned not null default '0',
CACHE_TIME int(9) unsigned not null default '30',
TITLE_PREFIX varchar(32),
BODY_FORMAT text,
FEED_IS_ENABLED tinyint(1) default '1',
FEED_WAS_ESCAPED tinyint(1) default '0',
PARSE_BBCODE tinyint(1) default '0',
TOPIC_ICON varchar(30),
REGEXP_SPECIAL text
) TYPE=MyISAM


Into my Query window...resulting in this:

Upload the each of those folders to your forums directory (the directory containing ubbthreads.php)

That'll leave the structure something like

../ubbthreads.php
../cache_builders/rss_topic_creator.php
../languages/english/admin/topic_feeds.php

Then open the txt file and follow the instructions in there. You'll run the one query, replacing %%TABLE_PREFIX%% with the table prefix used at your forums.

You'll then use your trusty text editor (notepad if you have nothing better) to edit a couple of files specified, and then you upload the modified files.

Go to your control panel, click "Topic Feeds" in the left bar, and set the feeds up

I have the tables created and files uploaded / modified. I can use the admin panel to add feeds to forums, but nothing is actually taking place / nothing is bieng added to the forum.

I type in the url of script which triggers things. It executes just fine, but does not add any informaiton to the DB about the new topics it finds.

Is it possible that the changes made between 7.1 and 7.2 (some tables changed) and this mod simply do not work well togeather?

After install, i had a problem where only some feeds would work. It looks like if the feed does not provide a date for each topic, the mod will not work. If that sounds right, why not change it so that it defaults to todays date?

I am still getting 2 or 3 copies of each feed.

I installed the latest version from the first post, set up a new forum and linked to a new rss feed from google.

However I still got 2 or 3 copies of each feed frown

One thing that sucks is that sites with popular editors will take and rename the feed topic several times sometimes... Which will be grabbed each time, which is entertaining to say the least (reuters tech is what I'm viewing)

Just noticed on this one I set up - I have two new articles - each have been repeated 10 times LOL - this is hidden at the moment from users, so it is not an issue - but it also means I can not use this script in real time yet.

With some help from SD I have this up and running again...

Change:

$smarty = new Smarty();
$smarty->template_dir = 'templates/default';
$smarty->compile_dir = 'templates/compile';

require_once( "../libs/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php" );
require_once( "../includes/config.inc.php" );
require_once( "../libs/mysql.inc.php" );
require_once( "../libs/ubbthreads.inc.php" );

/**
* Should each new item increase the user's post count?
*/
$config['TOPIC_FEED_INC_POSTCOUNT'] = true;

$html =& new html;

To:
Code
// Setup the smarty class
require('../libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php');
$smarty = new Smarty();

$smarty->template_dir = 'templates/default';
$smarty->compile_dir = 'templates/compile';

// include all of the required libraries

Actually, I think I know the cause of that... Once I took it out of the footer (to where it's loaded every page load) and put it in the forum stats island so it's cached it only pulls one copy...

I think it's the occasional X amout of people hitting it at the same time when it's supposed to refresh that gets doubles...

I've followed all the directions. Everything seems to be ok, with the following exception:

The Create Topic Feed from the Control Panel does not show any forums to put the topics into. All I see is a vertical blank selection box.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

GREAT mod! Thanks very much for this! smile A few things...

When I try to create a topic feed, I always get:
Quote
It appears that you have reached an update page without submitting any data.

confused

I'm guessing the form data is not being passed for some reason, causing me to get this generic UBB admin error.

I'm running 7.4.2. Has anyone else tried this mod on this version? Well, in the mean time, I can just edit things in the database directly with phpMyAdmin.

Also, it appears it does not support feeds that use ASP. Is this correct?

One feed uses
Code
&
in their URLs, and this is completely stripped out of the URL when posted to my board, even with the FEED_WAS_ESCAPED option checked...

How would I strip out
Code
<br />
from the feeds? I can't figure it out and have never been that good at preg_replace

If I specify in Portal Settings to pull from forums created using this mod, it won't pull from them... I just get a big blank space staring at me...

I miss the days with loads of free time on my hand. The "It appears that you have reached an update page without submitting any data." problem is easy to fix. Since 7.4.1 (I think?) all forms had a form_is_valid field added. You need to add this to custom scripts too.

Thanks blaaskaak! I found the fix...
In edit_feeds.tmpl, after:
PHP Code
<input type="hidden" name="returntab" value="$returntab" /> 
add:
PHP Code
<input type="hidden" name="valid_post" value="1" /> 

One strange thing I noticed...

I had changed my forums around a little bit after I installed this mod. I renamed a forum and added some. On the edit pages, it is still showing the old way. I'm guessing it's not pulling these from the DB, and from some flat-file somewhere perhaps? :shrug:

Could be that your cache is outdated. I don't know the exact way it handles things, but it does cache the forumlist on some pages. Maybe remove everything from the cache directory except the index.html file?

Decided to look into it. Seems it was using a deprecated cache file. I am using 7.4.2 and to do this to fix it:

In admin/edittopicfeed.php find:
PHP Code
(file_exists("{$config['FULL_PATH']}/cache/forum_list.php")) ? include("{$config['FULL_PATH']}/cache/forum_list.php") : $tree = array() ; 
and replace with
PHP Code
(file_exists("{$config['FULL_PATH']}/cache/forum_cache.php")) ? include("{$config['FULL_PATH']}/cache/forum_cache.php") : $tree = array() ;

This seems to be broken for 7.5

The scripts reference files that don't exist such as Forums_list.php is now called Forums_cache.php etc.

I go to add an RSS feed link and it says the following:

It appears that you have reached an update page without submitting any data.

Can someone take a quick look at this and post an update.

Thanks a bunch..

Nope, ian's gone AWOL; the issue with the CP stuff is the same as the bugs at UBBCentral for 7.4

is there a more easy way to install this instead of playing with tables? Also does it work on 7.5.5?

I have installed this but when i go to admin control panel and go to topic feeds, down the page where it says Forum to put the topics into: the box is blank with no list of my topics in there.

Can anyone help please?

I'm not too sure what changed in the CP since I had initially installed it; I know it definitely has its short falls on things that don't work 100%...

Ian isn't really involved with the UBB anymore and I'm not really sure if anyone has really looked at the base code anytime since the mod was made...

When I get some more time I can try to hack the CP area to get it working though; but I've been really swamped with my own coding lately (hence why I haven't been as active as I used to be here lol)
