RSS Generator v1

What is it? RSS Generator is a PHP/MySQL script that allows any user to create valid RSS feeds based on their existing MySQL database tables. With RSS Generator, simply configure the script to connect to your database using a simply connection/installation wizard, and you're ready to create RSS feeds for your website!

How does it work? RSS Generator works by examining the fields in your MySQL table, and asking you some simple questions about how you want the script to grab your content. After it has been configured to extract the data from your database into an RSS feed, RSS Generator makes use of the Smarty Template Engine to handle the caching of your RSS feeds to help reduce your server load.

Key features. RSS Generator's key features include:

• Integrates easily with your existing MySQL Database
• Quickly and easily configure your RSS feed based on existing database tables
• Handles multiple newsfeeds based on the same table
• Handles multiple newsfeeds based on different tables (within the same database)
• Uses Smarty Template Engine to handle output and caching, greatly reducing server load
• All options of your news feed can be modified at any time
• Easy removal of news feeds
• Force regenerate any newsfeeds (i.e. clear Smarty cache files)
• Handles UNIX Timestamp, RFC822, and MySQL DateTime formats
• Limit number of articles returned by the query
• Order the articles returned
• Change amount of time a cache of your feed is valid
• Edit the MySQL query used to retrieve news in "advanced" mode
• Quick RSS validation
• Quick installation

Sample use for RSS Generator. Okay, this sounds great, but when would I use this script?

Many websites use the power of PHP & MySQL to dynamically display news and other important information. Almost every site now has a news section that is driven off of an existing database. Suppose your MySQL news database table looked something like this:

Table Name: News

• Heading
• ArticleBody
• PostDate (UNIX Timestamp)
• Author
• ArticleID

In order to create a valid RSS feed from the information you already have in this table, simply tell RSS Generator that you want to work with the table News and click the continue button. Next, select which fields RSS Generator should get its data from - for example, the 'title' attribute of the RSS feed should be populated by the 'Heading' field in our database, the 'description' attribute should be populated by the 'ArticleBody' field, the 'pubdate' attribute from the 'PostDate' field, the 'author' attribute from the 'Author' field, and so on.

After you have made all the proper associations, simply click the button to save your settings and check out your brand new RSS feed!!
