Create RSS Feeds
A client wanted to me to create an RSS Feed of their event listings for syndication. I was able to create one in under a half hour using easyPHPCalendar. It requires a template file, and a php file to generate the feed using only a few lines of code. I'm not sure if this meet RSS standards but it works in Firefox live bookmarks and a few readers I checked.
Listing Template For the RSSFeed
rss.php
PHP Code:
<!--head-->
<!--head-->
<!--body-->
<item>
<title>[title]</title>
<link>[url]http://www.domain.com/calendar.php#[/url][title]RSS Title Name</link>
<description><![CDATA[[descr]]]></description>
<dc:creator>EasyPHPCalendar</dc:creator>
<dc:date>[date][time]</dc:date>
</item>
<!--body-->
<!--foot-->
<!--foot-->
<!--empty-->
<!--empty-->
The Actual RSS Feed
rssfeed.php
PHP Code:
<?php header("Content-type: text/xml");?>
<?php echo "<rss version=\"2.0\" xmlns:dc=\"http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/\">" ?>
<channel>
<title>EasyPHPCalendar</title>
<link>http://www.domain.com/</link>
<description>EasyPHPCalendar Events RSS Feed</description>
<language>en-us</language>
<?php
$LIST=1;
$DF = "M d";
$listMonths = 1;
$noOld = 1;
$template="rss.php";
require ("calendar/calendar.php");
?>
</channel>
</rss>
