Hunter has also coded a RSS feed for latest topics:

This channel is now disabled for security reasons.


Enjoy!

Nice job guys, but I have just one problem with the Topics feed. I would rather have it list who made the last post and not who made the topic, I don't really care who made the topic. If its possible to do this, that would be great. If not, oh well.

 

[Lily]

I agree, last poster as opposed to topic creator would make the feed just wonderful.

I cant get the rss feed to work on firefox or trillian pro with the news plugin, anyone else having problems? Even if I go to the rss address I get the proper heading info but no new news posts....

Is it possible the news is not getting updated to the .rss file propery?

Thanks for your help.

 

[Dirtie]

That's because it's been down since GBATemp went down with hosting troubles a week or so back (or more, I can't remember). Anyway, I request that this gets fixed please.

 

[Tweeder]

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll hang in there, please fix this asap though! It keeps my coming back to the site much much more.

would separate nds, homebrew, GBA and, wii feeds be possible?
Dunno how they are set up or coded so oblivious to how much work that would entail.

 

[Costello]

OK, I've edited the rss script a little

Now you can select exactly what you want in the RSS feed.

If you still use this address:
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php
you'll get exactly the same feed as before.

but now, you can specify a parameter: "show".
Show must be a 5-digits string, example:
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php?show=00100

Show = 00100 means:
the 1st character (0): it disables the "gbatemp & scene news".
the 2nd character (0): it disables the "GBA releases"
the 3rd character (1): it ENABLES the "NDS releases"
the 4th character (0): it disables the "Wii releases"
the 5th character (0): it disables the "Homebrew news".

So... you can really choose every possibility.

If you only want the GBA+NDS+Wii releases:
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php?show=01110

If you only want the other news (non releases):
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php?show=10001

You can also want to view the releases in different feeds
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php?show=01000 (GBA releases only)
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php?show=00100 (NDS releases only)
http://gbatemp.net/rss.php?show=00010 (Wii releases only)

etc.

Thanks Costello! Thats exactly what I was after

 

[Costello]

glad I could help

I might be adding rss feeds for individual topics, or individual forums...
it's not really that hard to code.

 

[MR_COW]

Dude, thats awesome. I love it!

 

[kobewan]

Definitely very awesome.

However, if its not too much to ask, can you make it so that there is a way to show the whole article in the feed summary, instead of only who posted it and how many replies there are?

 

[mcbey]

^agreed

Just easier to load the main page than to check the RSS

 

[Gendou Ikari 201]

I added the 10001 news rss in Google Reader, but I can only see the title of the posts, and not the content. Can this be fixed please?

 

[Costello]

The content isn't supposed to be shown. If you want to read the posts you'll have to visit the forum

I've just fixed the feeds for the new server.

 

[Gendou Ikari 201]

Way to go, Costello!

 

[StingX]

its dead

 

[Sinkhead]

Please note that the RSS feed is BROKEN with the current Russian release. If you remove the NDS releases category it should work again...

[psykopat]

[DjFIL]

this is excelent for my ipod touch browser... but one question. anyway to set it so it's on latest release order, not based on latest forum post for that release?
