Title: TP and RSS
Post by: gz06 on April 28, 2013, 04:25:55 PM
Hi, I can't see articles in RSS which are listed on TP first page.
This is RSS
http://forumkavkaz.com/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss

and this is first page:
http://forumkavkaz.com/index.php

Possible to fix this?

That is SMF's rss feed. TP does not have an RSS feed built into it as a feature.

Not without you writing some custom code.

gz06,

I'm sure that you have figured out by now that the code for rss in articles has never been added into the TinyPortal base code.  Several people have figured out their own methods to do this.  If you do a search for "rss  for articles", you'll find some topics about this.  It wouldn't be too difficult to write your own if you can follow directions.  This link may also give you some ideas but you'll have to become familiar with XML --> http://www.webreference.com/authoring/languages/xml/rss/custom_feeds/index.html

I can't see even if google or other spiders indexing TP articles main page on my web site listed above. Is it so?

I don't understand what you are asking ...
QuoteRSS Aggregators do one thing - they go out to one specific URL on a website, download a specifically-formatted XML file, parse that text file and display it (and in many cases, linked media as long as the link is in the correct format) in a human-readable manner.

RSS feeds really have nothing at all to do with web crawlers, search engines, or spiders.  Can you explain what you are talking about please.

If you asking me, yes I can explain: I do not have rss from TP articles and search engines with spiders do not crawling and not indexing articles from TP main page. Is any way to fix such search engines issues? It's much important then rss right now.

Forum pages crawling well. Even posts are in search engines listings. robots.txt is ok. no errors.

I do not know why searching engines do not crawling and do not indexing TP articles?
