Dear team,
First of all: I truly love Kirby CMS, its just great.
I only have a brief question: I exactly followed your HowTo under Content from an RSS feed | Kirby CMS on how to integrate a RSS feed to my Kirby website.
Everything works perfectly fine, there is only one problem: Everytime the RSS news feed gets a new entry, I have to manually add the virtual subpage which contains the new entry, so that it is actually displayed on my site.
This is of course not the true sense of automatic RSS embedding.
I would be grateful for any hint on how to adapt your HowTo so that the RSS contents “renews” itself automatically.
Thank you so much for your valuable support!
Dear texnixe,
Many thanks!
This is exactly what I want to do - I just want to implement an RSS feed from a remote location.
But when I follow the instructions, I always have to manually click on the newly fetched content to embbed it as a new virtual subpage.
My only question is whether there would be a way to automatize that?
Thank you so much!
PS: I would also use the existing plugin to implement the RSS feed but unfortunately this plugin is only compatible to K3.
And I thought that there could be more people that just would like to embbed an external RSS feed to their Kirby sites.
If I follow the mentioned instructions, the so created module makes a virtual subpage for every entry of the RSS feed.
Everything works perfect, all subpages in the moment of the creation of the module are displayed.
But once the feed changes because a new entry was added to it in the external source, this new entry=virtual subpage is not automatically displayed or created in my Kirby site. Instead, I have to manually choose the new subpage with the new entry to add it to the pages module (which is used to display all entries of the RSS feed).
If there would be a simple solution to just display an external rss feed, I would be more than happy to use that instead. But I understand your instructions as if this is not possible and so I implemented the instructions and the result are absolutely fine - as long as no new entry is added to the external feed.
