Set MinItems=15 on the script measure. When you show a feed with fewer than 15 items, it will fill in the rest with blank spaces. I apparently did not document this feature very well, so apologies for that.onimorza wrote:I only found a small issue (for me): I display 15 topics per feed (fits nice on my desktop), 3 feeds per list. But one of the feed pages has only 10 topics. When switching to that 10 topic list, the bottom 5 topics from the other list (with 15 topics) are copied to the bottom of that 10 topic list (and thus don't belong there).. Would be nicer if they would be just empty offcourse
Anyone an idea how to avoid that?
Yes, actually. :)MerlinTheRed wrote:Please tell me you are including descriptions in this new update! That's exactly what I need right now.
Code: Select all
for i = 1, math.max(#Feed, MinItems) do
local Item = Feed[i] or {}
Queue['Item'..i..'Title'] = Item.Title or ''
Queue['Item'..i..'Link'] = Item.Link or Feed.Link or ''
Queue['Item'..i..'Desc'] = Item.Desc or ''
Queue['Item'..i..'Date'] = Item.Date or ''
Queue['Item'..i..'Date'] = Type.DateToString(Queue['Item'..i..'Date'], Timestamp)
Queue['Item'..i..'Unread'] = Item.Unread or ''
end
Yes - if you set KeepOldItems=1. If you don't enable this option, then only items that are still found in the feed will be kept.MerlinTheRed wrote:So the script sets variables for all the feed items. And it keeps track of old feed items. Will all those be available vie those variables?
Yes. Specifically, items that are still in the feed are shown at the top, and older items are moved below them. (This seemed like the best way to handle the possibility that the feed could have been reordered since the last update.)MerlinTheRed wrote:If a new item is added to the feed, do all the other shift?
2 for each feed (title and link), and up to 5 for each feed item (title, link, description, date, and unread mark). If description or date are missing, they are ignored.MerlinTheRed wrote:How many variables will the skin create?
That would work. :)MerlinTheRed wrote:I guess if I want to make a feed reader that just displays the 5 most recent entries or so, I set MinItems and MaxItems to 5?
