I have a Google Feed script working quite well, except that when new
blog items are created or updated, my feed using the script does not
update. Randomly I can get the feeds to update (not sure how) but not
consistently.
The feed is pulling from a Wordpress Blog.
I am guessing that the feed variable needs to be reset because it is
storing the XML in the browser from my Wordpress blog?
Any suggestions? Do I need a function that resets var feed? If so,
how do I do that?
My script has two feeds, for two different parts of the page (querying
by category). Here is my script:
<script type="text/javascript">
var feed = 0;
google.load("feeds", "1");
google.setOnLoadCallback(BlogFeed);
google.setOnLoadCallback(EventFeed);
String.prototype.truncate = function(to_length){
if(to_length >= this.length)return
this;
return this.substring(0,
to_length-3)+'...';
}
function BlogFeed() {
var feed = new google.feeds.Feed("http://edgeworksclimbing.com/
blog/feed/");
feed.setNumEntries(10);
feed.load(function(result) {
if (!result.error) {
var container =
document.getElementById("blog-headline");
for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
var date = new Date(entry.publishedDate);
date =
date.toDateString().substr(4);
var blogcategory =
entry.categories;
if(blogcategory !=
"Events") {
var li
= document.createElement("li");
li.className = "rss-item";
li.innerHTML = '<a class="rss-item" href="' + entry.link + '"
target="_self">' + entry.title + '</a><br>';
li.innerHTML += '<a class="rss-date" href="' + entry.link + '"
target="_self">' + date + '<cite class="rss-author"> by ' +
entry.author + '</cite></a> ' + entry.categories + '<br>';
li.innerHTML += '<a class="rss-snippet" href="' + entry.link + '"
target="_self">' + entry.contentSnippet.truncate(50) + '</a>';
container.appendChild(li);
}
}
} else {
var container =
document.getElementById("blog-headline");
container.innerHTML = '<li><a
href="http://www.edgeworksclimbing.com/blog";>Edgeworks Blog</a></li>';
}
});
}
function EventFeed() {
var feed = new google.feeds.Feed("http://edgeworksclimbing.com/
blog/feed/");
feed.setNumEntries(10);
feed.load(function(result) {
if (!result.error) {
var container =
document.getElementById("event-headline");
for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
var date = new Date(entry.publishedDate);
date =
date.toDateString().substr(4);
var eventcategory =
entry.categories;
if(eventcategory.indexOf("Events") != -1) {
var li
= document.createElement("li");
li.className = "rss-item";
li.innerHTML = '<a class="rss-item" href="' + entry.link + '"
target="_self">' + entry.title + '</a><br>';
li.innerHTML += '<a class="rss-date" href="' + entry.link + '"
target="_self">' + date + '<cite class="rss-author"> by ' +
entry.author + '</cite></a> ' + entry.categories + '<br>';
li.innerHTML += '<a class="rss-snippet" href="' + entry.link + '"
target="_self">' + entry.contentSnippet.truncate(50) + '</a>';
container.appendChild(li);
}
}
} else {
var container =
document.getElementById("event-headline");
container.innerHTML = '<li><a
href="http://www.edgeworksclimbing.com/blog";>Edgeworks Blog</a></li>';
}
});
}
</script>
