Multiple RSS feeds

Seems Dolphin has trouble if you try and use multiple RSS feeds on the same page, only the first 1 or 2 will load, the rest just die. Anyone have an explanation or a fix for this?

Works for me: http://houstonlively.com/page/topnews

TIP:

Adding this css to general.css will get rid of those annoying, other peoples, google ads from the feed.

.rss_item_desc img {
display:none;
}

Must be some sort of operator problem.  You should go have a few beers, and a tequila shot or two... maybe it'll start working when you get back.

That's a very nice news page. I want to do exactly the same thing, only for towing & recovery related topics...

I will give your .CSS change a try and see what happens... Thanks....

The question still remains though. How come my RSS feeds won't load more than 1 or 2 per page?

I also did not have a problem.

I stuck 6 crappy feeds on one page. http://www.deanbassett.com/page/newpage

Thay all load.

Yeah, I used a two word search term and forgot the damned + sign, lol. I got it working....

I would sure like to know how you setup the scroll bars in the blocks....

Does it matter where in templates\base\css\general.css you place this code?

thanks in advance!

Add to general.css

This will target all rss blocks site wide

.RSSAggrCont {
height:200px;
overflow-y:auto;
}

If you only want to target specific rss blocks, then you need this:

div[rssid="569"] {
height:200px;
overflow-y:auto;
}

** In the second example, you'll have create the feed first, and find out the feed number to target it

I always add any new css at the end of the file...mainly just to see everything I added at a glance.

I also always put a comment line to identify everything that follows, as something I added, like this:

/* Added by me */

* {
outline:0;
}

.rss_item_desc img {
display:none;
}

div[rssid="567"] {
height:200px;
overflow-y:auto;
}

div[rssid="569"] {
height:200px;
overflow-y:auto;
}

div[rssid="570"] {
height:200px;
overflow-y:auto;
}

div[rssid="571"] {
height:200px;
overflow-y:auto;
}

If you want to remove images from only a specific rss block:

div[rssid="569"] img {
display:none;
}

Removes some extra crap from USA Today news feed:

.feedflare {
display:none;
}

Adds bottom margin to WSJ feed:

div[rssid="570"] .rss_item_wrapper {
margin-bottom:1em;
}

Basically, after you create the feed, you can add some specific css rules to get rid of some extra clutter.  They probably don't like me removing images from their feed display, but what are they going to do.  I noticed the USA Today feed has a few 1px by 1px images in the feed... you'd be surprised what they can find out just by putting that image no one can see into the feed.  They got the IP of who viewed it, the website they viewed it on, the date and time they viewed it, probably an amazingly accurate viewers location, from which they can get demographic info, etc.

Very nice, thank you!
