I know that the roadmap shows improvements for RSS handling in general, but Id like to share a few ideas I had.
A lot of incomming feeds that I use display pictures and take up a lot of space. So I was wondering if theres a way to add a simple interface to the RSS box. One that allows users to view x amount of headlines with an arrow that allows them to display the next x amount of headlines in the feed, ect.
Also Adding a dropdown menu for the users to select other feeds aswell as remember their prefrences.
I dont know how easy this would be, or how possible it is, but I would definately like to suggest this idea. ;)
good idea, bad idea?
I agree.
Some of the basics that I think would be really good to have is the option to customize / hide / show:
- Images - option to hide / show - even customize the layout if showing images
- Story - option to hide all of the story (just the title shows), show a certain number of words, show a certain number of lines, show entire story, etc.
- Number of stories / titles
And, like the shoutbox, implement the ability to turn autoscroll off / on.
As you said, my understanding is that Bloc is willing to do a lot of things like this with it, before 1.0 comes out.
Im glad someone likes it! :)
Im trying to figure out how to make a mod for it myself.. But I dont know enough php to do it. If someone else doesnt do it, I'll do it eventually! :D
I've been using CaRP as a solution and it works beyond beautifully. If there's anything I'd like to see TP's RSS intergration model itself after, CaRP would be it.
wow, thx... didnt even look at CaRP
Added a few things to TP that will maybe help: showing titles only for feeds, styles to tailor the titles better and support for image tag.

Nice Bloc, then I hope that when appear the image on RSS, it will not be a two larger ones (in size) ;)
No, it has css style to create a scrollbar at least, not breaking the layout.
