Podcast Mod

[Yankidank]

This mod will be included with all future versions of Pligg starting with Pligg Beta 5. To turn your Pligg installation into a podcast feed creator you have to do two simple things.

Step 1. Add this code to libs/options.php after the RSS area at line 52. Come back after testing the code to edit these lines to fit your podcast.

PHP Code:

// Podcast
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Title', 'Pligg Podcast');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Description', 'Pligg Podcast Content Management System');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Link', 'http://www.pligg.com/forum/');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Language', 'en-us');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Copyright', 'Copyright 2005');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Webmaster', 'podcast@pligg.com');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Author', 'Yankidank');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Subtitle', 'A podcast powered by Pligg');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Summary', 'Make your own Pligg Podcast by visiting www.pligg.com/forum/');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Owner', 'Yankidank');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Owner_Email', 'podcast@pligg.com');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Explicit', 'No');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Image', 'http://www.pligg.com/img/logo.png');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_iTunes_Explicit', 'No');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Category', 'Technology');
define ('PLIGG_Visual_Podcast_Subcategory', 'Podcast'); 


Step 2. Upload podcast.php to your root web directory. That's it! You should now be able to subscribe to your RSS by pointing iTunes to http://www.yourdomain.com/podcast.php . The podcast script will only publish articles that make it to the front page "published" status. If you are a god or admin, you can change the story status to "published" manually.
