Using a PHP class to generate RSS feeds
February 7th, 2007 by PaulHere’s a good starting point for generating numerous RSS feeds from your databased content. The image below is a screen snap of my sample class, I’ll include some basic instruction below that.
Use your class like this:
include(”class.RSS.php”);
// set global vars
$RSSoutpath = “server path, not url”;
$RSStitle = “feed title”;
$RSSdesc = “feed description”;
$RSSurl = “url to feed”;
$RSSdebug;
// initiate the class
$makefeed = new genRSS();
// loop through your database content to generate items using makeItem()
$makefeed->makeItem(’url’,'title’,'description’);
// create the final output file
$makefeed->makeOutfile();
echo $RSSdebug;
