Want to display syndicated content on your CPS portal? This product adds a new type of box to CPS3 3.x. You then can lay out RSS feeds using the boxes management form. Available feeds are centralized in the portal_rss tool.
Administrators can set globally how many entries are to show, and local managers can change this setting for displaying less entries.
The feeds can be refreshed at each access or "lazily", after the given timeout. This caching reduces overload and avoid increasing response time because of slow syndicated sites.
The current version relies on Mark Pilgrim's Ultraliberal RSS parser. It has been tested with version 2.5.3, which supports RSS feeds expressed in the following formats: RSS 0.9x, RSS 1.0 (and RDF/XML-based format) and 2.0.
Note to CPS 2 users: This product is intended for use with CPS 3.x only. You should still use NuxRSS along with CPS 2.x.
