[Bug 1219499] Re: Some RSS feed channel images are rendered too large in External feeds block

 

Hello Geoff,

Thank you for the report. I'll ask our designer to look into this and
see if she can simply change the CSS or if dev work is needed.

Cheers
Kristina

Title:
  Some RSS feed channel images are rendered too large in External feeds
  block

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Some RSS/Atom feeds provide an over-large channel image/logo which
  disrupts display of the External Feed block in a Mahara Page.

  See e.g. this feed link from the BBC
  http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/worldservice/digitalp/rss.xml

  Obviously this is an issue with the feed source rather than Mahara per
  se. However,  the suggested solution is to set CSS  max-width style
  attribute and max-height style attributes to the channel image.

  Will simply need, say,  an appropriate CSS class added to htdocs >
  blocktype > externalfeed > theme > raw > feed.tpl and related .css
  entry

  The RSS 2.0 spec defines a max-width of 144px (default 88px) and max-
  height of 400px (default 31px). So, these would be reasonable values.
