v9.5: Category RSS feeds

[tbones]

Sorry to bother you but forum search of "RSS" delivered no results:

The category feed shows just a description of the category regardless of PLIGG_Visual_Name with date 1970-01-01 where it should show the category content.

How can I achieve that?

I just noticed that the blog link to a tutorial (download) is dead. The post is here:

Could it be something related to define_tables.php ([SOLVED] Top 5 users in sidebar) ?

Now I think this direction doesn´t make sense: If the db table aliases would be the problem then status=all no doubt mustn´t work.

sorry are you posting multiple bugs and how to fix them??

really hard to follow what the actual bug is.

Sorry if I caused confusion:

I don´t get any stories displayed in category view.

A few days I go I had a problem that was caused because my system couldn´t understand db table aliases defined in define_tables.php. This was my first thought about the reason for the category view problem.

could you give me a url to test this "category view"

it is view stories of a category in index.php or upcoming.php??

[tbones]

It´s the rss.php?category=x view.

To explain "view": I´ve learned that FF and IE 7 have propritary designs to show those feeds in their main window.

I´ve found the solution:

yget/sidebar_modules/categories.tpl uses the category id, displayed by the instruction auto_id. This doesn´t work. You have to use safename instead that forms the RSS-URL with the category name.

But I miss one thing: status=all displays all stories while the category parameter produces just six stories. Where can I change that?

Edit: I was to enthusiastic! No matter what category you choose it always displays the first six stories of category 1. So the problem is with rss.php.

Is revision SourceForge.net Repository - [pligg] Revision 1306 related to this problem?
