Well, for the last week or so, I have been working on updating the RSS feed for Evo Xtreme. Well, I took a bit of a break from that for now to build something else.
I don't remember when or who, but last year, or, maybe a few years ago, someone requested an RSS feed block for their site. I guess they wanted to highlight any news for game that their clan ran and I don't ever think anything came of it. Well, while the RSS feed, I was messing around with my steam and I clicked on something and I ended up getting the RSS feed from the game that was in my library. Well, that got me thinking, so I started creating a simplistic responsive Feed system, You can see it here:
As of right now, minor control over it is available,
- Ability to control how many characters will show.
- If there is a seperate image that comes with the news, you can have it float left right or both, and having it just center. The example above has it floating left and right.
- How many articles to show.
- Ability to just have the heading show, (removal of the pubdate), and you combine that with 0 characters for the character limit and you just have the headings.
It's not a block right now, and being a center block, the responsiveness would be similar to what is on this system, but as a side block, I would have a theme that would fix it to "side block size or a little bigger. Probably talk to Lonestar on that. Right now,it does cache the feed and updates it ever 12 hours, but that can be changed easily. It also does display then it was last updated. I have that feed on a game called "Hell Lets Loose", but can be put to any game. You can also control how many characters to show in the feed. For side block, I would probably do hidden divs unless click on to show and hide the story, and you only see the title.
My question is, Is this something that people would want and use. I don't want to waste my time writing something that is not going to be used.
