I want to provide my blog with an rss feed for tags. I tried for 2 hours without any result. I woud appreciate any help.

After three hours of trial and error I found a solution. All changes are done in BlogHolder.php
In the init() I chnged the link:

RSSFeed::linkToFeed($this->Link(). "rss/" .$this->ShowTag(), _t('BlogHolder.RSSFEED',"RSS feed of this blog"));

In the rss() I added a parameter to $entries:

$entries = $this->Entries(20, Director::urlParam('ID'));

The rss widget still works the same way. The browsers rss link in the address line is now dynamic and shows entries by the selected tag.
Now I just need a template link to rss.

Here is the template link to RSS:

function LinkToTagRSS() {
            $url=$this->Link(). "rss/" .$this->ShowTag();
            return $url;
}

Very simple ;) I hope I did not break a big security hole in my installation.

Hi!

That's a nice addition (BTW, did you submit it to Trac?), thank you!

Nevertheless, $LinkToTagRSS does not work in templates of widgets included in the Sidebar (i.e. SubscribeRSSWidget.ss and TagCloudWidget.ss). I don't know if it is a bug or a feature… ;)

Best regards,
Juan

Hi Juanitou,

I didn´t submit it to trac yet, mabe I finde some time tomorrow.
I´m not familiar with the widget arcitecture, but I know that those widget have their own controllers (eg RSSWidget.php). Maybe you have to implement the LinkToTagRSS-method there to call it on a widget template.

Greetings,
