html page display

Hi all

I am wanting to have the following page diplayed on my forum (without having to click on the link)

http://www.newsfeedmaker.com/feed_advanced_html.php?keywords=%22hull+city%22&num=20&code=34b6bea7&abstract=0&same_window=&nfm_block=background-color%3A%23C3D9FF%3Bwidth%3A100%25%3Bnfm%3AH9pt%3B&nfm_article=padding%3A0.5em+1em%3Bmargin%3A0px%3B&nfm_article_title=color%3A%23000000%3Bnfm%3Au11px%3B&nfm_article_abstract=color%3A%23666666%3Bnfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_article_date=color%3A%23003366%3Bnfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_more=color%3A%23000000%3Bnfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_morelink=color%3A%23000000%3Bnfm%3Au9px%3B&nfm_article_link=color%3A%23000000%3Bnfm%3Au9px%3B

I want it to be within a thread showing the news

is this possible

many thanks

scott

if you click that link on the page that pops up, you will see at the bottom 'powered by news feed maker' click that and then you can choose what you want to show on your personal newsfeed, the site will then email you the script and you can add this anywhere on your forum.

Hi

thanks for your reply but I meant how do I get the news feed on my forum without people having to click on the link to see it?

many thanks

scott

that is how you can do it scott, if you click it for just now, and select the topic you want to have news feed for, it will email you your own personal embed code (script) to put on your forum. It wont be a clickable link that you get emailed, it will be a proper code to display it as you want it.

Hi

do you mean use another code and not html? - I know newsfeedmaker gives you the option of other codes but they mean people using them have to log in, hence I wanted to use the HTML version

I hope this makes sence and I appreciate you rhelp

go there and you should be able to have the HTML version code emailed to you to add to your site

ah i see it sends you just the link, select javascript or iframe instead, it will display the same.

Code:

<iframe src="http://www.newsfeedmaker.com/feed_advanced_iframe.php?keywords=%22hull+city%22&num=10&code=c43b6c0f&abstract=1&nfm_block=nfm%3AH9pt%3B&nfm_article=padding%3A0.5em+1em%3Bmargin%3A0px%3B&nfm_article_title=nfm%3Au11px%3B&nfm_article_abstract=nfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_article_date=nfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_more=nfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_morelink=nfm%3Au9px%3B&nfm_article_link=nfm%3Au9px%3B" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto" border="0" style="border:0px;" height="100" width="500"></iframe>

if you add that code to a new topic it will work fine.

Hi thanks

I have done Iframe

here is what I was sent - where do I paste it?

you can paste that pretty much anywhere, this section of it. If you want a thread with it in then create a new topic. If not you can add it to a module, but you will have to modify the height and width of the i frame to fit the height and width of the module. You could also add it to your homepage message box, or to your portal if you have it:

Code:

<iframe src="http://www.newsfeedmaker.com/feed_advanced_iframe.php?keywords=%22hull+city%22&num=10&code=393052f7&abstract=1&nfm_block=nfm%3AH9pt%3B&nfm_article=padding%3A0.5em+1em%3Bmargin%3A0px%3B&nfm_article_title=nfm%3Au11px%3B&nfm_article_abstract=nfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_article_date=nfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_more=nfm%3A9px%3B&nfm_morelink=nfm%3Au9px%3B&nfm_article_link=nfm%3Au9px%3B" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto" border="0" style="border:0px;" height="100" width="500"></iframe>

Hi

I tried the code above but it appeared as code not the page

sorry to be a pain but why is this?

thanks

scott

where did you add it? i tried it on my forum and it worked fine. Make sure you have html turned on for your forum and in your profile preferences too, if it was a thread.

http://blurbforums.com/off-topic-discussion-f12/testing-topic-t62.htm#208 (on my forum)

Thanks for that i'll take a look and see if I can get it working, thanks for your time

just wondered also - where did you get the code from - did you select iframe as it different to the one they sent me

scott

yes i did, the javascript wont show in a topic, and is more complicated. The i frame is simple, but you must have html enabled throughout your forum. You also need to change the height value in it (currently set at 100px, to around 500px to have it as large as it is in my forum. Hope you can get it up and running soon.

Hi

sorry, me again - HTML is enabled so i'm confused - any more suggestions?

scott

scott,

i joined up and stuck a post up with the iframe, it shows on my screen can you see it?

http://teambuild.forumotion.com/other-f11/just-testing-something-ignore-me-t1855.htm#12715

is it a thread you are trying to add it to?

I am just testing how to do this so I am just adding it to any thread

I am seeing throught that link just the code and not the feed

is that what you are seeing?

scott

yes it is a thread I want to put it in- I miss understood

no i am seeing the feed, have you been in your profile and into your preferences and made sure it says yes for allow html?

hmmmm - yes I have - but I am seeing the code and not the feed

how odd, all i can think of then, is that your computer is not set to show iframes. have you tried refreshing your temp files and cookies, then refreshing the page, see if it shows then? After that i am stuck though maybe someone else may be able to tell you what you need to change on your pc itself to see iframes.

I could see it on your website so dont think its that

can I double check - how can I check that html is enabled for me as a user - think may have been looking at html for the full website

scott

if you go into your profile on the site itself, not through admin panl, you need to click preferences (near avatar and sig) then scroll down and make sure you have set always allow html to yes

Hi - I CAN SEE IT

thankyou so much for your help

will everyone have to go into their prefernces to be able to see it or can I set it so everyone auto has this enabled

lst question I promise

thanks

scott

thats something i am not sure of. I know when i joined your forum the first thing i did was check and my option was already set to yes, so i think it automatically does it for members, but didnt for you because you were the first to join before it was set to always allow HTML in your admin panel.

Glad it is working for you now and you are welcome

your a star

thanks for your help

scott

anytime (goes off to bed...zzzzz)
