Step by step:

1. Click "My Apps" and select "IP.Content"
2. Click "Templates" on the left side
3. Click "Add Template"
4. Select "Add Listing Template"
5. Click "Database Tag Help" link above the block content
6. Click the database you want
7. Click "Listing Template"

Then I follow all the steps to create the block and the only thing I get is the title, do not I get the contents of the category of the chosen database, knows what is the problem

Excellent idea. I will upload a new version soon. I will also be adding a category filter, where you can select all categories or only specific categories and some extra attachment parsings for fields to allow a bit more flexibility. =)

It might be the php page timing out if it's too long. You should also check the limit in your php.ini.

File Name: IP.Content 1.1.1 Database Feed

This is the very first 'alpha' version of this tool. It is currently working and lightly tested. Unfortunately I don't have a demo site since my site is not live yet and still in development.

This has only been tested with IP.Content 1.1.1. Current version of file: 1.

The following features are implemented. More features to come if more features are requested, but that is all I needed at the moment:

• Select database
• Sort by comments, rating, submission date, updated date or any field of your database, ascending or descending.
• Limit number of records and skip number of records
• Attachment parsing
• BB-code parsing

<div class='general_box'>

	<h3>{$title}</h3>

	<ul class='hfeed'>    	

	<if test="is_array( $records ) && count( $records )">

		{parse striping="feed_striping" classes="row1,row2 altrow"}

		<foreach loop="$records as $r">

			<li class='hentry {parse striping="feed_striping"}'>

            <a href='{parse block="board_url"}/index.php/?/page/database?record={$r['primary_id_field']}' rel='bookmark' title='{$r['field_1_value']}'>{$r['field_1_value']}</a>			

			<span class='date'><abbr class="published" title="{parse expression="date( 'c', $r['date'] )"}">{parse date="$r['field_2']" format="short"}</abbr></span>

			<span class='desctext'>{IPSText::truncate( strip_tags($r['field_3_value']), 100 )}</span>

		</li>

		</foreach>

	</if>

</ul>

</div>

replace the /page/"database" with your actual database name for this feed.

Installation:

Step 1: Drop in admin/application_addons/ips/ccs/sources/blocks/feed/data_sources

Step 2: Nothing. Thanks to IPB's plugin systems, it is that easy to install!
