RELEASE NOTES of the MediaWiki extension RSS
|
|
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RSS
|
|
|
|
=== TO DO ===
|
|
* bug 30377 add a new parameter to limit the number of characters when rendering
|
|
the channel item <description>
|
|
* set an upper default limit for HttpRequest request size when fetching feeds
|
|
doing a HEAD request first to ask for the size but that value may not be
|
|
available. Check how much data is returned as its coming back
|
|
in which case you'd override the content fetch callback and count data as it
|
|
comes in or check the header, again, if it's provided, at the start of data
|
|
coming in. Then you could abort cleanly once it's gotten too much
|
|
(otherwise using the defaults - PHP will abort the entire program when your
|
|
memory usage gets too high)
|
|
* bug 30028 "Error parsing XML for RSS" - improve and harden Extension:RSS when
|
|
parsing differently flavoured RSS feeds
|
|
|
|
=== Version 1.90 2011-08-15 ===
|
|
* removed parsing of each single channel subelement (item)
|
|
* only the finally constructed feed is sent to the recursive parser:
|
|
in pre-1.9 versions, each channel subelement (item) was sent to the parser
|
|
* [[MediaWiki:Rss-item]] default has channel subelement <description> added
|
|
* Rss template default name has been changed:
|
|
|
|
until 1.8: [[Template:RSSPost]]
|
|
1.9: [[MediaWiki:Rss-feed]], an existing [[Template:RSSPost]]
|
|
takes precedence to be compatible to pre-1.9 versions
|
|
* introducing [[MediaWiki:Rss-feed]] with a meaningful default.
|
|
The channel subelements which make the feed are rendered in this
|
|
new standard layout:
|
|
* <title>
|
|
: <description>
|
|
: <author> <date>
|
|
* There are several ways to customize the final layout of feed items:
|
|
1. Admins can change the [[MediaWiki:Rss-feed]] default page
|
|
2. Users can use the optional template= parameter to tell the extension
|
|
to render the feed with a different layout
|
|
<rss template=Pagename>...</rss> use layout as in [[Template:Pagename]]
|
|
3. <rss template=Namespace:Pagename>...</rss> use [[Namespace:Pagename]]
|
|
|
|
=== Version 1.8 2010-10-19 ===
|
|
* removed dependencies on Snoopy in favor of MediaWiki's internal HttpRequest
|
|
* removed MagpieRSS (perhaps to be replaced later with SimplePie)
|
|
because of concerns about MagpieRSS's security problems and
|
|
lack of maintenance.
|
|
* Added ability to do more with the layout of RSS feeds.
|
|
|
|
=== Version 1.7 2010-07-23 ===
|
|
* cleaned up, included MagpieRSS library
|
|
* put into the WMF subversion repository by Jeroen De Dauw
|
|
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Jeroen_De_Dauw
|
|
* i18n file added by TranslateWiki.net people
|

**This appears not to be true; I have received numerous emails about it not working with 1.9+. I would love to help debug and fix the extension, but my host has not upgraded to PHP 5 and I'm thus stuck at MediaWiki 1.6.8, so that's as far as this is guaranteed to work properly. If anyone develops a fix, please post a link to it here! —[[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] <sup>([[User talk:Alxndr|t]])</sup> 02:02, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

***I just found [http://nako.us/2007/03/16/mediawiki-19-fix-for-wfstrencode/ this fork] that purports to have a fix for the new loss of wfStrEncode(). I can't test it though so can anyone else verify that it works? —[[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] <sup>([[User talk:Alxndr|t]])</sup> 02:18, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
