Hello

I have Your "(NB40) RSS Sidebar Widget" but I did use "custom block" for my rss, unfortunetly as few other things latest 4.1.14.2 update make it not work correct (some tiems dispay, some times not -at random). Can You help me and advice me what files I need to edit to use Your widget but to it work as my custom code (I mean to display images from my feed with tittle on them and all clickable with link)?

$rss = new DOMDocument();
	$rss->load('http://bigholestube.com/feed/');
	$feed = array();
	foreach ($rss->getElementsByTagName('item') as $node) {
		$item = array ( 
			'title' => $node->getElementsByTagName('title')->item(0)->nodeValue,
			'desc' => $node->getElementsByTagName('description')->item(0)->nodeValue,
			'link' => $node->getElementsByTagName('link')->item(0)->nodeValue,
			);
		array_push($feed, $item);
	}
	$limit = 7;
	for($x=0;$x<$limit;$x++) {
		$title = str_replace(' & ', ' &amp; ', $feed[$x]['title']);
		$link = $feed[$x]['link'];
		$description = $feed[$x]['desc'];
        echo '<p><strong><a href="'.$link.'" title="'.$title.' " target="_blank">'.$title.'</a></strong><br />';  
		echo '<a href="'.$link.'" " target="_blank"><img src="'.$description.'</a>';
	}

 If You will be so kind to help me again I will be really really thankful.

Hello,

For my widget you need only rss link.

[alex1981]

Yes exacly and this is how I ask You to some help what to edit to make it work for me. May be this will be also usefull for other owners.

 

Take a look:

My custom block display for me tittle (if is to long it wrap it) and image both clickable to post on wordpres tube.

 

While Your one display for me:
Title (works ok but is not wrapped if need)
Image (it is only mini image - no link to source)
and worst: under image display link to video file on server with working click to it (so all idea to move ppl to post on wordpres tube where rss is sourced die since they got instant file)

ofcourse I can disable description but this left only title link without images I need so much.

So if You will be so kind to tell me what I need to edit in code to get results like in my custom block what after last update stop work well I will be thankful. I want to use Your module since it have settings for groups and it works instead of custom block all time.

Content of your rss link has html with big width.

<img width="300" height="169"

<div style="width: 960px;

All html located in js. You need edit it before install the plugin.

---

You can add in custom.css 

.feedEkList * {
	width: 280px !important;
}
.feedEkList .itemContent > div {
	display: none !important;
}
.feedEkList .itemContent > img {
	cursor: pointer;
}

And add in includeJs template

<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#divRss').on('click', '.itemContent img', function() {
    var link = $(this).parents('.ipsDataItem').find('.itemTitle a');
    var href = link.attr('href');
    var target = link.attr('target');
    if (link) {
      window.open(href, target);
    }
  });
});
</script>

Dang, upgrades always improving something but breaking other nice things.

My Rss feed NB40 from my Blog used to work flawlessly but after the recent update to 4.1.17.1 it has stopped. The board RSS feed works to import into a forum section but the sidebar RSS block no longer works. So the RSS from the Blog must be working okay but the NB40 isn't working any longer. Any suggestions on how I can fix it? Any help appreciated because this is such a great widget.
