What is it?

vice.plone.outbound provides Plone with the ability to syndicate web feeds (rss, atom, etc). It is configurable by users and extensible by developers.

Plone requirement: version 3.1

Features

vice.plone.outbound gives you outbound syndication for all "out of the box" Archetype Content Types (ATCT) and subclasses. Any folder (including the site root) can be configured with any number of feeds. This can be used to provide granular or bulk content feeds in multiple formats.

Any feed can be set as recursive or not. A recursive feed will include all the content at the feeds location as well as any sub-folders content and so on. A non-recursive feed will only syndicate the content directly present at the level of the feed.

Auto discover can be set on any feed. This will enable modern aggregators and browsers to "sense" the feeds location by simply providing the URL for the feed folder. NB only one feed per any folder (location) should be configured with auto discover on.

Users may also include a "Published URL" on any feed. This will enable site managers to easily route all traffic through services like "feedburner", by first registering the local syndicated feed with feedburner, and then entering the respective feedburner URL as the "Published URL" for the feed.

Enabling or disabling feeds can be done for the whole site (see the add-on product configuration for "Syndication (Outbound)" in the Plone control panel), on any folder, or each feed itself.

There are global and per folder configuration options for the maximum number of items to be syndicated from any respective feed as well. The most recent added or modified date is used to sort all feed content.

Installation instructions are in INSTALL.txt.

Assuming you have your buildout.cfg in an editor:

  1. Put vice.plone.outbound in your ``eggs = `` section:

    System Message: WARNING/2 (<string>, line 56); backlink
