Hi,

I have a couple of sites that I wish to use the Content Export to RSS feed. I have set up a quick test and everything works ok, just wondering if anyone else is using this and if you have any pointers to share.

I am new to RSS feeds, and once again Farcry does an excellent job to create the feed, but I would like to learn how best to tailor this for my sites.

First site will have probably 1 to 2 news items added each day (max)
Second site will have 20-30 news items added each day

Here are some quick questions, but if there is anything else that would be useful please let me know
What is the best number for max Number of Items?
What is the update frequency?
What effect does the update base date have?


I am assuming that I can make dmXMLExport a custom type and modify _dmXMLExport/generate.cfm to tailor the content that is selected to go in the feed.

One thing I have found is that my feeds did not validate initially, this was simply down to characters that had been cut and pasted into the teaser. I will probably try to resolve this by putting some REReplace() in the _dmXMLExport/generate.cfm

Thanks in advance, and a very big thank you to Daemon for adding this feature in V2.

Chris.
