Title: first impression and help on RSS feeds
Post by: Samuelsan on December 02, 2003, 06:59:03 AM

Hi,

i am a new user of today plus, and i am really happy with it

Concerning RSS, i would like to understand parameters of rss in todayplus
on this example for instance : rss,4,120,http://rss.com.com/2547-1_3-0-20.xml,CNet Tech News,0

i would like to be able to construct my own rss

Moreover il would like to reduce the size of the font in order to see more text. besides is it possible to autoscroll news like on PocketRSS

Thanks

Samuelsan

Welcome to the world of TodayPlus!

To answer your first question about the format for the RSS feeds, the syntax is as follows:

Code Select

rss,<id>,<refresh interval>,<web address>,<name>,<pages>
This is taken directly from the Skin Reference file found here (http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?p=3555#3555).

To answer your second questions about the font size, it is controlled by the skin not the feed. To change the size of the font displayed, you need to edit the skin you are using. Again, reference the skin reference file on how to do this. This is the basic syntax to look for:

Code Select

changefont,<font name>,<size>,<format>
And lastly, I believe it isn't currently possible to auto-scroll with TodayPlus.
