Hello all,

I am attempting to set up a RSS feed using "WebFeeds" ( /Category/RSS? 
action=rss ) that feeds pages marked with [[!(RSS)]] and have a few  
questions/problems I am trying to work out.

My main goal is to create a feed that has a description as well as  
associated images. This could be the full content of a page or an  
edited down version of the content, whatever is easiest to accomplish  
would be fine by me. An example of how I would like the feed to be  
formatted can be viewed here (  http://www.creativereview.co.uk/ 
crblog/feed/  ). Basically a simple blog type of feed that I will be  
running through FeedBurner once it's working correctly.

Right now I am only able to get page titles to show up as links in  
the feed with no description or images.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

this could be the issue causing descriptions to not work correctly?

{$description} is not displaying (:description text:)

where is this defined?
i think I am missing some code in "config.php" or is there a specific  
page that this is defined in?

------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
-----
in "Category.RSS" I am currently using...

(:pagelist order=ctime link=Category.RSS group=-PmWiki,-Site  
fmt=#teasers:)

------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
-----
in "config.php" for the feed I am currently using...

if ($action == 'rss') {
     include_once("$FarmD/scripts/feeds.php");
	}
$FeedFmt['rss']['item']['title'] = '{$Title}';
$FeedFmt['rss']['item']['description'] = '{$Description}';

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Derek
