Hello Everyone,
This is my first desktop made with rainmeter. All I did was use other people's skins and put them together. As I as still learning how to code a skin.
My problem is the RSS Feeder that I am using (Author=Ragingwasabi, link to download provided) shows the coding tags when it pulls back the info.(See image) I cant figure out how to stop it. I have looked over the documentation on Rainmeter website and followed those tutorials, but everything I do breaks the feeder. So short of completely coding my own, (which I have not done, yet.) I'm at a loss on how to fix it.
Any help would be great. Thank you.
I have changed the URL to parse espn's Rss. The orginal URL was Techcrunch and it had not problems with it. Everything showed like it was supposed to, when I changed the URL this happened (see image). Link to download= https://visualskins.com/skin/rss-feed-reader-pack

I think if you add these lines:
RegexpSubstitute=1
Substitute="<!\[CDATA\[(.*)\]\]":"\1"
To each of the [RSS1] ... [RSS10] child measures, it might fix it for you.

"Beaten by the 'Master' again..."
Edit the code by adding this line of code: to each section that return the "Title" information; that would be sections [RSS1] through [RSS10]. You do not need to add the line to the other webparser measures since they return a link.
This will substitute any instances of that text in the returned string.
You can find details in the RSS Tutorial in the documentation...

Code: Select all
Substitute="^\s+":"","<!\[CDATA\[":"","\]\]>":"","!\[CDATA\[":"","\]\]":""
