Subject: [farcry-dev] Re: Fill me in on RSS and XML exportThanks for the info on the "export" function...Regarding RSS - does anyone have any information on how that feature is supposed to work? I'm expecting it to generate RSS standard XML - which it does - but the XML generated describes the task I created - I want it to describe content as it's entered. An RSS feed should be related to the content of the site.-Mark-----Original Message-----Export generates an xml file containing the types' data. I'm not familiar RSS, but I'm pretty sure the generated XML doesn't have the right format.

First, when I went to create a feed and "view" it I got an error because the Oracle DB did not have the column "status" in the dmXMExport table. I added "status" and set default to "approved" - maybe Beth can tell me if I fixed or introduced a bug :)
Secondly, I created a new feed called "medical services" with a file of "mservices.xml". I assigned a type of dmHTML to it with an update frequency of 1 and max items of 25. I added the "Medical services" cateogry to the feed. What I expected to happen was for it to generate an RSS feed for my medical services page. What I got instead was this:
http://lgh.cfwebtools.com/xml/mservices.xml
Which is a description of the task.... Can someone fill me in? Is there a way to generate an RSS feed based on content?
Next - I tried the "Export" function. I picked "dmHTML" (again) and entered a file name and clicked on "export". I got an error:D:/websites/lghcms/lgh/www/xml directory doesn't exist. Please create before trying to export.
What's the purpose of the export tool? Is it to export settings? content?
Any information would be helpful. This is a great list by the way - ovewhelmingly helpful :)

Ahah!! I figured it out.... Each of the dmHTML items in the site
content tree must be explicitly assigned a category ... silly me... then my RSS
export has to map to the categories... Once I did that content started pouring
in :)
