Hi,

I noticed that on Dale Hay's forum he is using some sort of plugin which posts news from a website/feed.

what is this plugin?

here is the link to his site - http://www.convoworld.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=77


many thanks

dave.

That's the RSS-to-Post plugin by our DennisTT, it's so annoying when a user does the "View New Posts" link though, so here's what I did after I installed that plugin.

Open 'search.php'

Find: (Around line 694 - 701)

	$where_sql = "t.lastpost >= '".$mybb->user['lastvisit']."'";

Replace With:

	$where_sql = "t.lastpost >= '".$mybb->user['lastvisit']."' AND t.uid != '22'";

** Note: Replace the '22' with the user ID of the "bot" account if you're using a dummy account for the RSS Bot **

My little extra above modification is mainly IF you have a seperate account showing the RSS feeds on your forum. Otherwise it'll hide ALL the new posts of which ever user you told it to hide.

cheers mate, nice modification
