Actually, I used featured content in IPB 3 via RSS for my blog community but now in IPS 4, RSS for blog is no longer available. Do you know if there is anyway that I could use your featured content to publish my latest blog entries in my community? Thanks.

Sorry, I don't understand. Your RSS is no longer available, so how can you use it?

I mean I used your Featured Content plugin in my previous IPB version (IP Board 3) through the use of RSS. However, I've upgraded to IPS 4 now. I would like to continue using Featured Content, is there anyway I can still use it since RSS for blog is no longer available in IPS4? 

If the rss url is available, you can use it. I can give you account to test site so you can see how it works.

Try to go ACP > Support, run get support to clear the badly cache.

fast and helpful support! That did the trick, you rock! Thank you :)

oh one more question.. is there anyway to have it used the most recent thumbnail in thread (from most recent post in thread) as the representative image? Right now it's using the first image in the first post in the thread. @onlyME

seems like it's updated if someone simply posts in the thread. I am not sure.

I am trying to have featured content that works like this.

In respective forum show me 1 thumbnail per thread for threads that have recent images posted to them. Is this even possible?

It only has feature to get the first image in first post and display in slider. Never update anything.

first image in "thread" or in updated "post".. If it's the first image in the most recent post with images I think thats great. If it's first image in thread then that makes no sense to me. So whenever the thread gets updated with new images the same old tired first image in thread gets featured to the community? :(

 

This is almost the perfect mod that I've been dreaming to have for IPB.. I am trying to showcase newest images in my forums as I run a massive image board.

The first image in the first post of topic. I have no way to make it select other images, some topics have no images or only  have 1 post, so selecting the first is the best solution.

Or you should add contents to slider manually. You can control the best images for slider

query all images in topic and select one with most recent attach date.. ?
I can't be manually updating my sliders all day. I have many forums, 40K users and 2000+ images uploaded daily!!

It can not. The attatchments are embed by <img.... tag, and the hook will get all image urls in <img...
