Hi,

I have a rather tedious problem I can't really solve. I have a fully working RSS feed on a link at the bottom of the site as seen on the picture attached and the site http://www.jeromelecunff.com/ but the top left icon of rss link to an error page and I can't find a way to link the rss feed from the bottom to that icon. I found the joomla newsfeed that seem's to be feeding the working rss and the newsfeed menu in K2 but I can't find a way to at least make the rss feed work on the icon that much more visible.

Another thing but not crucial, for every category the link on the bottom creates a feed for that categorie, is it possible to do the same for the icon on top og the page. And another thing why can't I find the mentioned rss icon in the module positions.

thanks in advance

Hi

In template settings under "Features" tab You will find a place to copy an rss link.

To change this link dynamically I think You may use a script like:

Code: Select all
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($) {
   $(document).ready(function() {
      if( $('a.k2FeedIcon').length() > 0 ) {
                      $('a.gkRSS').attr('href', $('a.k2FeedIcon').attr('href') );
                }
   });
})(jQuery)
</script>


You can add this to /layout/blocks/head.php

I knew I missed it while looking at it. I was searching in the newsfeed part and it was that simple.
Just another question, how can I change the feed name? I found the options for the images, the order of articles but no name.

Tnx.

Hi

Sorry for delay.

I think a feed name is a name of the K2 category. Can You show me an example of title You have in mind ?

Hi

Ok. Can I see an example ? I need to see on which page it's being produced to learn if title is made from category title or breadcrumb path like it looks like in Your case.

Hi

As You said I can see "jeromelecunff - jeromelecunff - jlcunff" as an RSS title, but this tells me nothing :) Please send me an access to joomla panel so I'll look for a place where this can be configured. I think it's this page's menu element or settings to RSS in K2 parameters.

Hi

I got an access, but You need to extend my right a little bit. I'm not able to see the K2 configuration right now.

Hi

I'm still not able to access this parameters, but I've done some testing on my copy and looks like one "jeromelecunff" is a site name and "jlcunff" is a page name. So in Advanced SEF for K2 try disable showing site name in titles. This should be used for RSS titles as well.
