I did not realise it untill now, but apparently it is possible to add pagelist parmeters to ?action=rss, which will make for a nice blog rss or atom output. For instance like:
.../pmwiki.php?action=rss&group=BlogPages&list=blog&order=-ctime&count=50
To test use this link: rss blog feed
So now I added feed links to all blog pages, so visitors with browsers like Firefox can click the rss feed symbol and add the blog pages to their bookmarks easily.
## add blog feed links to html headers
$gp = FmtPageName('$Group', $pagename);
if ($gp=='Blog'||$gp=='BlogPages'||$gp=='BlogComments'
||$gp=='BlogArchive'||$gp=='BlogCategories') {
# disable further feedlinks
# introduced with feedlinks.php (must be loaded later)
$EnableRssLink = 0;
$EnableAtomLink = 0;
$HTMLHeaderFmt['blogrsslink'] =
"\n <link rel='alternate' title='\$WikiTitle Blog RSS Feed'
href='\$ScriptUrl?action=rss&group=BlogPages&list=blog
&order=-ctime&count=50'
type='application/rss+xml' />\n ";
$HTMLHeaderFmt['blogatomlink'] =
"<link rel='alternate' title='\$WikiTitle Blog Atom Feed'
href='\$ScriptUrl?action=atom&group=BlogPages&list=blog
&order=-ctime&count=50'
type='application/atom+xml' />\n ";
}
This adds the html link reference to pages in groups Blog, BlogPages and BlogComments (these are the groups I use with blogsimple). It will display as rss feed the last 50 blog entries in order of creation time.
It would also need to have pmwiki's rss feed enabled in config.php with:
# add rss feed supply capability
if ($action == 'rss' || $action == 'atom') {
@include_once("$FarmD/scripts/feeds.php"); }
