#46 zikula feeds module blows up page when you tell it to give you only 5 items from the feed rather than all
Closed: Fixed Opened by duffy.

  • I create a feed for Planet Fedora in the Feeds module.
  • I go to the blocks screen. I create a block to display the feeds in the right sidebar.
  • The planet fedora feed displays in the right sidebar, except it displays every single item in the rss file - too much. I only want to display 5 items.
  • I tweak the settings for the block in the panel, telling it to display only 5 items.
  • the entire site blows up. the only way you can work with the site at this point is to apply the following client-side RSS:

body {
width: 4000px !important;
}

div#main-content {
color: black !important;
}

This blocks the possibility of having a planet fedora feed.


Here's what my settings for creating the feed block look like.

okay that's way too many items. the display is right (per item title+ link to full story) but we don't need ALL items in the feed. just a few.

here's the configuration for the feed display. i tell it to display only 5 items from the feed.

telling feeds to display only 5 items blows up the entire page. it also goes from displaying only title+link per item to displaying the entire article, inexplicably. no visible option to change this.

Fixed with a template mod. New template in themes/fedora/templates/modules/Feeds/
