RSS Items

Use the *|RSSITEMS:|* merge tag to format and output content for the last 3 items in your RSS feed.

Example:

*|RSSITEMS:|*
    <p>
        <a href="*|RSSITEM:LINK|*">
            *|DATE_FORMAT:'%Y-%m-%d', RSSITEM:PUB_DATE|* -
            *|RSSITEM:TITLE|*
        </a>
        <br>
        *|SAFE:RSSITEM:DESCRIPTION|*
        *|SAFE:RSSITEM:IMAGE|*
    </p>
*|END:RSSITEMS|*

You can control the number of RSS items looped over by RSSITEMS by adding a number after the colon in the tag. The number must be between 1 and 10 (a maximum of 10 rss items can be output).

Example outputting 5 rss items:

*|RSSITEMS:5|*
   (your content here ...)
*|END:RSSITEMS|*

You can use the RSSITEM:INDEX variable to output different content for different items in the feed.

Example:

*|RSSITEMS:|*
    *|IF:RSSITEM:INDEX = 0|*
        First RSS Item
    *|ELSE:|*
        Other RSS Item
    *|END:IF|*
*|END:RSSITEMS|*
