sure, you can find my gallery at : www.xavtek.com/gallery/rss .
i just checked, the feed displays the images correctly, but when you look at the source or if you open that feed with safari, you have the ability to download full res version of the images.
thanks, and don't hesitate if i'm not clear (i sure i'm not completely ... ;))

ps: for those that were wondering about a rss icon, i made one that i put online, you can use it if you want.

xavtek: I only was able to access the 640*480 images..... Seems correct from here.

An error has occurred.

For "items to include" the current list is:

New items only
New and updated items

would it be possible to have another option for "all items" ?

I would like my gallery RSS feed to show a list of the most 10 recent subalbums within a specific album, and right now I'm not quite sure how to do that.

Is there any chance that the RSS module will support the Media RSS standard (backed by Yahoo and Flickr)? I'm not running 2.1, so I don't know if support has been added since I last tried the RSS module. See the spec here: http://search.yahoo.com/mrss

It would be nice if it did, because then the Flickr module in Typo (blogging software) (and other software, presumably) could be used with Gallery feeds with very minimal modifications. I'd be willing to take this on, when I have some free time, if it hasn't already been implemented.

ziplux: that's a great suggestion. I've added to the list of requested features post-2.1 (2.1 has been feature-frozen for a while).

Contributions are always welcome. Let's talk about it after 2.1 has shipped and before you start writing code; we're planning some major changes in the module for the next release.

I have made some minor modifications to the RSS module for my own use that I'd like to share. They provide some extra flexibility in configuring the title, description, and scope (cut off time) of feeds. I can provide you with the diff and readme files...

I linked a modification in this thread that puts the Simple RSS Feed in the <links> section so it's discoverable by feed readers (if Simple RSS Feed is enabled) as well as the configurable feeds.

one thing that i've noticed from a lot of my users is that the RSS feed in an integrated install is b0rked. here is a URL posted to my forums, click the "rss feed" link and view the source: http://www.meatclan.net/modules.php?name=gallery2

dmolavi : seems that PHPNuke is trying to apply its theme to the rss feed, which it shouldn't

Actually both the site map module and the RSS module will experience this difficult.

I edited the /public_html/header.php file like this to fix the problem

Quote:
On top, after <?php, add

if (substr( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],0, 31 ) != "/modules.php?name=2&g2_view=rss")
if (substr( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],0, 31 ) != "/modules.php?name=2&g2_view=sit")
{

on bottom, before ?> add

}

This is a more of a bandaid fix, but it is better then nothing since it work so far!

You can probably simplifies it to:

Quote:
if ($_REQUEST['g2_view'] == "rss.SimpleRender")

I can't seem to find a way to get an RSS feed of all of the latest comments, site-wide, kinda like the "Latest Comments" page. Is there an easy way to do this? Or another module that supports it?

TimothyF: Create a custom feed for the top level gallery.
Select:
For albums - Comments for the album .
Which items - New and updated items .

I've tried that... It appears that that feed only displays comments that were made directly on the top-level album itself, /not/ the sub-albums. So, unless I'm missing something, that's not gonna help me.

(the url where I tried this, for those who are curious, is http://www.thornvalley.com/gallery/fan/rss/Comments )

According to this page, it sounds like it might not even be implemented yet? http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:Modules:rss

Also, I'm running Gallery 2.1.1 on Debian Linux with PHP 4.4.2 and eAccellerator (not sure of the version) installed. The RSS module is at 1.0.6 (what came with the install package). BTW, if this is the wrong place to post this, I'd be very grateful if the right place were pointed out. Thanks.

ThimothyF: your right, a site wide comment feed is on the feature request list. I 'll see if I can start working on it.

grund-

I have created a password protected gallery and would like authorized members to use the RSS feed to keep up to date with photo postings. I have set up the feed but my rss reader will not see it. In addition, I have tried to use the authentication portion of my rss reader but this also did not work.

Can you use a RSS feed from behind a password protected gallery?
Is there something specific that needs to be added to the RSS feed for authentication?

Thanks for the help,

noc

OK - i thought about that but my feed reader (intravnews) allows me to set the feed as a secure one and to specify credentials (login/password) for it. Should that not work?
For some of the URL created by this module i do get the 'no link found' error (photos and subalbums) but for comments i get the 'secure feed - provide credentials' error. If I provide login/password i still get the same error. Hope it makes sense. Is tehre anything that can be done to make it work?

I see the problem has still not been fixed..

How do we get around this for galleries that need to be application (gallery2) passworded???

Thanks so much for your reply...

Hi,

I am having a couple of problems here. I have a fresh install of Gallery2 and I am using the Carbon theme.

I cannot see where to set the permissions for RSS feeds, I have gone through the permissions of the album and it is not there. As far as I can tell the module is installed correctly as it shows in the module menu.

After I have created a feed for the album, I tried to click on the link to make sure it was working and it said :-

Feeds of that type are not allowed!

If I then click on the sidebar where it says rss feeds for this ablum I get this :-

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.


<rss version="2.0">

<channel>
<title>3D Image</title>
<link>http://www.evolution3d.com/v/Test/test.jpg.html</link>
<description>This is a test image while setting up the site</description>

Any ideas?

Jonj1611: Perrmissions are set in the siteadmin->RSS pages. There you set what type of feeds are allowed. By default only the simple feed is allowed.

Grund: Would there be any problems I'd need to be aware of if I use the SVN version of the RSS module inside my Gallery? Gallery's at version 2.1.2. Also, I assume I'd just replace the old files with the new ones and reactivate the module in the modules admin, correct?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have an odd problem with the site wide comments feed. It displays the comments ok, but they are ordered from oldest to newest which makes the rss-feed static.

I've poked around in the code a little bit, but I fail to see what is making this happen. I would be happy for any help as I think the site wide comments feed is a very cool idea.

Thanks!

/Jenny

The RSS worked perfectly in G1 and now my G2 RSS does not work at all. In the admin settings, I just have Simple Rss to be used.

If it matters, I have the two plugins uninstalled of URL Rewrite and Permalinks. I noticed from this forum people were having issues with the RSS from these two plugins, but I could be wrong as my mind is lost in CyberSpace with this G2 RSS.

For what it's worth, G1 was much easier and better in auto mode as when I upgraded, all my links (permalinks) got wacked as well as the RSS. These two elements have created a lot of bad kudos from artist that has a lot of hard work efforts into this G1.

The G2 RSS Simple Basic mode is not even showing how to subscribe from my firefox when you see the orange RSS button to click on. I use these feeds for other web sites and have been disabled of these features even since I upgraded.

Please advise and thank you for your support. :)

Is it possible to make a feed pulling photos from all sub-albums within a gallery?

http://www.clubtechnoir.com/main/gallery/main.php

Currently set to 'Items in the album', and this works for the sub-albums but obviously doesn't show anything for the main gallery page RSS as it only has sub-albums and no photos.

I thought setting the Simple RSS to 'Items in the album and its sub-albums' would allow me to use the feed at the topmost / parent level to view photos in all the sub-albums, but trying this yields no photos in the RSS feeds in *any* of the folders, parent or monthly.

Am I reading 'Items in the album and its sub-albums' wrong?

I have the same need as "vikram" and several others earlier in this thread. I need the RSS feed to show not just "new" or "updated" contributions to a gallery, but "all" or a predefined number of contributions.

Here's another description of the problem I posted elsewhere before finding this thread:
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/75102 RSS Feeds Expire

Any solutions for this?

Thanks for any help!

Any progress with Media RSS?

I tried to change the RSS generation by myself, unfortunately this part of the code is not as straight forward as I thought, so I gave up after 4 hours.

I am having the problem that the RSS feeds just don't show up. I added the block to the album and it shows up there - and says that there are no feeds available. But there is no option to create new feeds - although i allowed in the seetings every kind of feed.

does anyone has an idea, how to solve this?

is there a way to have the RSS show ALL images and folders/subfolders? I dont want to have a maximum number of items, and i dont want it to be exclusive to new or updated images.
