RSS Feeds, allow_url_fopen is on

Hi,

Still can't get RSS feeds to display on the homepage.  What I have found is this:

1.  php_value allow_url_fopen in on

2.  The Boonex forum feed does not display

3.  Feed from an external source does not display

4.  The Boonex default admin feed (http://www.boonex.org/author/admin/feed) DOES display.

So, what's different about the Boonex admin feed?

Why does that work but the forum feed does not?

Why doesn't external feed show?

??

It must be something to do with the format of the feed.....

Well, solved the external feed problem.  It's all down the the URL syntax:

http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds#Finding_Your_Feed_URL

For wordpress blogs for example, the URL should be http://yourblog.wordpress.com/?feed=rss

Now all I need to do is figure out Dolphin's own forum feed!

It seems to be in the /orca/index.php file  .....  {SiteUrl}orca/?action=rss_all  ..... 
.

Yes, that's right, and if I put the full URL in the address bar of a browser window, it does pick up the feed, so the feed is being sent and it's valid, but the Dolphin site doesn't display it correctly.

http://www.mydomain.com/orca/?action=rss_all

Yes I forgot that was what I had figured out before my head was splitting  ..... 

jquery.dolRSSFeed.js  .....   jQuery plugin - Dolphin RSS Aggregator
jquery.jfeed.js  .....  jFeed : jQuery feed parser plugin

I know very little javascript I'm afraid  ..... 

Also get_rss_feed.php  .....

Below is the legacy version of the Boonex site, maintained for Dolphin.Pro 7.x support.
The new Dolphin solution is powered by UNA Community Management System.
