Serendipity Forums

Somewhere in this forum I read that the freetag plugin version 2.49 should be able to display the free tags in RSS Feeds. I have version 2.56, but I can't get the freetag to show in RSS. I can choose if I want freetags in body/extended entry or in the footer, but none of the options makes the tags appear in RSS. I am using the latest RSS Bandit.

I can't upgrade to the latest freetag plugin version (2.62). Spartacus says it might be down, but it isn't. I sometimes have these upgrade problems for some reason. Usually it helps, if uninstall the plugin and then reinstall it, but I am concerned that I then loose all tags.

Besides, I would like to display Social Bookmarking and Adsense in the RSS Feeds. How can I do that?
I already have a link "Bookmark and share this page at del.ico.us etc" in my extended entry view, like here., but this is not included in any of my RSS Feeds (091, 10, 20). Unfortunately.

I would appreciate your help. Thanks.

Hi!

Are you using netmirror.org as your spartacus mirror?

About your RSS Feed: The tags are inside the Feeds already. Check http://atlanticreview.org/rss.php - search for <category>Al Qaeda</category>.

Besides, I would like to display Adsense in the RSS Feeds. How can I do that?

Edit your feed*.tpl files.

I changed netmirror to S9Y and SY9. Now Spartacus says, i got the latest version of the plugin.

About your RSS Feed: The tags are inside the Feeds already.

But why aren't they displayed in RSS Bandit?

I have included the code for the Social Bookmarking and Adsense at the end of the file feed_2.0.tpl (of my test blog http://facts.atlanticreview.org), but it does not show up in the RSS readers (neither in RSS Bandit nor in Sage).
The feed: http://facts.atlanticreview.org/feeds/index.rss2

Here's the code of feed_2.0.tpl:

I have fiddled around and tried different placements of the code, but failed.

I have activated "Show full articles with extended body inside RSS feed."

What am I doing wrong?

You changed it to s9y? s9y is a non-active mirror! Only netmirror and SourceForge are actually working.

About your RSS Feed: The tags are inside the Feeds already.

They are displayed in the headline! I think you are confusing two things:

1. Real RSS tags. They are entered as <category> subsittutes in your RSS feed, and as proper tags in your ATOM-Feeds.

2. Technorati-HTML output that shows within the body of your RSS feeds. Those tags can only be used if you use technorati code within your feed*tpl files. The freetag plugin should be independent from 3rd party applications like technorati or feedburner, IMHO.

About the Ad-Code: You need to figure this out on your own; supposedly you are not correctly escaping HTML. I cannot help you more on this, I despise Advertisement in RSS Feeds and do not want to help at all in this regard. Sorry.

Best regards,
Garvin
