pimp my RSS

Post by zERo »

Hey s9y'ers.

Have been offline for some time but still using and loving s9y.
Just installed the newest snapshot and played with another template.

My question: I really have no clue anymore about programming or tweaking inside the code, so any help (with a code example) would be really helpfull.

What I want to do: The RSS should not only contain text (currently it does NOT show the image I select as photoblog entry image) but rather I want the RSS entry to actually look like the s9y blog site. So fully identical site structure and css.

Is that possible? If so: how can I do it?

Thanks in advance and again thank you for your great blog software. It's just awesome.

@Garvin: einfach geil ... bin gespannt was noch alles kommen wird :)

This is not possible. All available RSS readers do not allow full HTML inside the RSS; so no CSS is applicable.

The only way to achieve this is to strip out all content of your RSS file and only submit the link to your entry. Then your rss feed will always open your full blog, but RSS readers will complain because they cannot read your RSS easily anymore.

Best regards,
Garvin (thanks for the praise! :-)
