RSS Aggregator and Extended Body

Post by proell »

Hi,

I am actually new to Serendipity, installed my site on the weekend and added the RSS Aggregator since I want to display articles from other blogs on my site.

Unfortunately, I already encountered a problem with the display of long articles. They are not split in the entry and extended body but the extended body is empty and the text is cut, only the beginning of the text ist printed in the entry body followed by ...

How can I configure the system that the extended body will be filled as well?

Any help is highly appreciated.

That's normal!

RSS feeds cannot contain a distiction of extended and normal body, they only deliver one field. So you've got to work with that one field, since that is all you can get.

Best regards,
