We have a forum where every day someone makes a pic of the day post.
The posts consists of a title, a short description in the body and one or two attached images.
I want to integrate the pic of the day functionality on the main part of our website so that the page just takes the current pic of the day post from that forum and displays it.
I thought that the rss feed would be perfect for this.
I have that forum set as the external data supplier and an rss feed being made from it.
On the webpage I have tried using both zfeed and magpie to display the feed, they work well except that the thumbnail links are always broken.
Is there a trick to getting the thumbnails or larger images themselves to get included in the feed?
Would I be better trying to use the external Javascript content syndication system for this? If so can someone suggest the correct code to put in my webpages to display the title, body and image?
