CG-Feedread iterating over feed links newbie question

  • There might be a really obvious approach to doing this but I’m just getting aquainted with php. I’d like to iterate over the list of rss feeds Feedread outputs to the page and insert some javascript before each one. If possible I’d like to do it so sans and html

    • tags. I’m looking at the cg-feedread file but it’s beyond my ability to hack without someone pointing me in the right direction.
      So, if there’s a relatively easy way to get the feeds as a list of strings in an array or something simular please inform.
      Thanks,
      Joe

  • when you say ‘the feeds’, I assume you mean ‘the feed entries’?

    there is one mode that outputs the feed entries with linebreaks (I think it’s mode==2).

    But there’s not currently a way to insert anything between the feed entries returned, without re-processing the list (which you could do, albeit with some pain).

    There is an upcoming revision that breaks out the entry-retrieval code from the formatting code, in which case you’d be able to call the new function, get an array of entries, and do whatever you’d like with them. ??

    Don’t have an ETA as yet…

    David, great app! Easy and clean. Check this out… Some of the sites I get feeds from come with images that are larger than the table that it sits in. Can CG-Feedread re-size images to fit? Thanx -> https://habit.eyago.com

    No, CG-FeedRead just gives what it gets. I don’t know if there are CSS tricks that will resize an IMG box (or at least crop it) — you could try to use CSS to set any img to width: x; height: y;… something like that.

    I don’t know if any of the aggregators (or rebloggers) do much massaging of the content, actually… Blog >readers< certainly can, but they are much more complex apps, obviously.. ??
