[Bug 731824] Re: Mahara forum RSS feeds not correct when in a moodle block

 

I've been looking into this some more.

I've tried to feed the Mahara RSS feeds
(http://mahara.midkent.ac.uk/artefact/blog/atom.php?artefact=30&view=138)
into both magpie and simplepie and they don't want to work. With
simplepie I just get a blank page.

If I copy the generated xml to a local file and then feed it into
simplepie it works as expected.

Also if I put the feed into feedburner and then use the feedburner
generated xml feed if works
(http://feeds.feedburner.com/RosieDouglassBlog?format=xml).

So its looking like there might be a problem with the Mahara generated
feeds

Title:
  Mahara forum RSS feeds not correct when in a moodle block

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have forum in Mahara with an rss feed:

  http://mahara.midkent.ac.uk/interaction/forum/atom.php?type=g&id=10

  When viewing the feed in a web browser or via a feed reader like tint
  RSS or google ireader it works as expected with the news title
  directing to the site when clicked on.

  However if I add the feed into an RSS block in Moodle when the titles
  are clicked they go to the root of the Moodle site and not through to
  Mahara. Other RSS feeds work as expected.

  Additionally is possible it would be good for these links to be able
  to automatically sign a user into Mahara when clicked.

  I am running Mahara 1.3.3
