After making sure that the requirements were met by our web server, I installed this component and set up an RSS feed to display industry news on our site.



I really like the concept of having a popup display the article linked to by the feed.

awesome

Worked immediately after install, needed ability to limit item descriptions. Posted in support forum, author released new version! Highly recommended - works well in small or large module positions!

Clean, working fine... in one word perfect!

Feed Tittle Headline

First of all, thanks for keeping this mod Free over the years. I gave this a 5 Stars but I found that if you click on Headlines it keep loading. You can check it out at iheartsharing.com . Let me know if it's a bug, my url feeds, web server that causing it.

Great Application. Really happy. One Feature I would like though..

Hi,



I really like this application. Perfect for what I want.



There was something I was wondering though.. Would it be possible so that when a user clicks on a article, it opens, that there would be a frame at the top or bottom which would include social networking buttons and potentially custom buttons?



Otherwise, would similar functionality be avaiable in the qtip/hover box?



Basically, I want people to be able to share the articles through FB, Twitter, etc, from my site...



In addition, I also want them to be able to comment, so I'm hoping to put a comment button on there which would link to my forum/comments area.



Is this possible?



Thanks again!!!

Excellent RSS Browser

Great RSS browser. Loaded and configured easily. The articles look good, the pop-up looks great!



I had a problem with a simplepie conflict but I changed helper.php to use jloader (I have other modules using simplepie also) but I have had to do that with other modules so it was easy.



Thanks for the module.
