Usage notes

  • feedId is the id of the feed set up at Settings > External Feeds (or tiki-admin_rssmodules.php ), max is the number of shown entries, date and author (optional) are added if set to 1 , and hidden if set to 0 , desc is a short description of the current rss item (optional).


You can also combine feeds by indicating 1:2 , or 1:2:3 to add feeds together. Note, however, that if you are combining feeds, "show publish date" must be checked in the Feeds module settings, in order to allow this plugin to sort the combined feeds.

Examples

Let's say you wish to display the list of last 3 items of a feed with the Id of 1 inside a Wiki page. Simply include this in your page, with date, but no author:

{rss id="1" max="3" date="1" author="0" desc="1"}

Tiki 30 LTS Is Here
🎉We are happy to announce the release of Tiki 30 LTS. Another Tiki release is always more than a new version number. It is the result of months of coding, testing, fixing, reviewing, translating, documenting, and discussing, with contributions from people across the Tiki community. Tiki 30 continues that tradition while bringing the platform forward in several important areas. As an LTS (Long-Term Support) release, Tiki 30 provides a stable foundation for organizations looking for a Tiki version to deploy and maintain for the coming years. Modernization under the hood A lot of work in Tiki 30 happens behind the scenes. Dependencies and development tools have been updated, older components have been replaced, and compatibility with newer versions of PHP and other technologies has been improved. This work may not always be visible, but it is important for keeping a platform that has been evolving for more than 20 years healthy and maintainable
