An RSS feed is a summary of a Website's news, files, and other activities that it distributes or syndicates to other Websites and individual users. RSS is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication. Indeed, RSS files are a nearly painless way to syndicate news and articles from one site to many. For instance, RSS files can be used to gather Slashdot news and Freshmeat releases, and display them on your Tiki.
Tiki is remarkably flexible when it comes to RSS. It can both display external RSS feeds from other sites in user modules and elsewhere and syndicate its activities (blogs, articles, forums, etc.) to other Websites via RSS.
The configuration of outgoing RSS feeds is explained in RssFeedSettings. In this document, we'll cover the configuration of incoming RSS feeds.
First you have to configure the RSS feeds that you want to use. As an admin-level user, click the RSS feeds link from the Admin (click!) section of the Application menu to enter the Admin RSS modules screen.
The Create a new RSS module panel can be used to create and configure incoming RSS feeds. Enter:
Now your Tiki is ready to receive RSS feeds. So, how do you insert them into your site? If you'd like to have them appear as a module in one of your columns, you must create a new user module. For full information on module creation, please see ModuleDoc.
As an admin-level user, click the Modules link from the Admin (click!) section of the Application menu to enter the Admin Modules screen. Scroll down to the Create new user module panel.
Enter:
Next, you must tell Tiki where to display this new module. In other words, you must assign it to the Tiki layout.
Once it's been assigned, it'll appear in the Assigned Modules panel, where it may be edited, moved up/down, or deleted (the x link).
You can include RSS channels in a Wiki page through the same syntax as in modules:
