My friend made this hack, he owns http://www.liquidpro.net/. Check him out.
You may contact him at email. Or you can IM him on AIM at LiquidPro10.
An example is shown at http://www.xtreme-forumz.net/. Go to the Techno forum under the General category. Then the CNET News sub-forum.
RSS News Feed Hack for vB 3.0.0. As long as vBulletin doesn't change the database structure much, this should be good for the next release also, and those to come.
Allows you to have a live RSS news feed (such as one from Google or CNET) in a forum. The user that posts it will basically be a bot, which *should* only be used for posting the news, but you can even make it for a regular user.
Comments are welcome!
Instructons:
Note: DON'T FORGET TO MAKE A BACKUP OF EACH FILE BEFORE YOU MODIFY IT!
Copy the files to your web server... keep the same directory structure as in the zip file.
Run the rss_install.php file to setup the RSS script.
If you're upgrading run the rss_upgrade.php file to setup the RSS script. Don't forget to remove all previous modifications (you can find them by searching for "LiquidPro")
