My rssfeed only shows stories readable for anonymous users

Hi,

The above subject, is probably default behaviour in geeklog 1.3.9 but I would really like to know if I can include the private stories of my website also in an rss-feed.

I already have the option "all-stories" enabled in my content syndication.

Regards, Nijno.

That wouldn't make sense. Since anyone can read the feed, those stories wouldn't be private any more ...

bye, Dirk

You're basicly right.

But, since an rssfeed would only show you the subject and then forward you to my site if you select it, then you would still have to login to actualy read the story behind the subject.

Can I at least get the subjects in the feed? Smile

That would be contradicting Geeklog's idea of security. If you don't have the permissions to read a story, you shouldn't even know that it exists. Even the title may give away too much information.

I can see that it may make sense for the feeds in some setups (e.g. to get people to register with the site). Currently, that's not possible, though. It would require a hack. You may also want to submit a Feature Request ...

bye, Dirk
