Showing images in RSS Feed

[Peter]

Hi, I have installed pligg 9.8.2 with image upload module, just that.

I want the images to show up in the feed, any idea in how to make it possible ?

Thanks.

Open your rss.php. Look for these lines (around lines 118-119):

$description = strip_tags($description);
$description = htmlspecialchars($description);

comment them out as such:

## $description = strip_tags($description);
## $description = htmlspecialchars($description);

This should now show your images in your feed. It worked for me.

Edit: Just wanted you to know that this only seems to work if you code your images in the summary via the <img> tags. This does not work (at least not yet that I know of) for the UPLOAD IMAGE module.

Thanks blaze, the thing is that I need it for image upload.

Anyone else ?

By looking at the code, I believe the reason it cannot be done (or hasn't thus far) is because, technically speaking, the thumb image being produced is not a static image, but rather a dynamic one being generated on-the-fly by the thumb.php script. I could be wrong, but this might just be the reason why. Oh well, sorry couldn't be more helpful.

Peter if you mean you would like the images to show up that are within the RSS feed, then you need to go to Admin - Submit- and then add the tag <img> in the html allowed tags.

I have it that way, but nothing shows up.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

I have the following in my submit html settings:-

<youtube><googlevideo><xoinks><break><vimeo><revve r><myspace><img><div><ul><li>

And if for example I go to Apple iTunes Top 25, I can pull in the Album Artwork.
iTunes Top 10 Albums

-- feed field name: itms : coverart --- pligg field name: link_field3 ---

This is for image upload module, you have it that way and working ?
