    hey all,

    today i was disecting phpld and found two bugs in phpld rss.

    Well keep on reading.

    One major bug is that

    phpLD RSS does not display Featured Listings

    Examples of site which does not display featured (sorry i only tested these no discrimination against the owners)

    http://www.forplex.com/rss.php?c=2
    http://www.alivedirectory.com/rss.php?c=96&s=P&p=1


    Featured listings are not there .... i am certain there are many more .. but i just happened to check the following because i visit these alot.


    Now the fixed version is right here

    http://www.idk.in/rss.php?c=462&s=P&p=1



    and the second bug is an unnecessary tag on the second level category title in RSS.

    Bug:

    http://www.gmax.idk.in/rss.php?c=77&s=P&p=1



    Fixed Version:

    http://www.idk.in/rss.php?c=77&s=P&p=1



    Well i fixed them and posted what to change for those on my blog so make sure you read both posts




    Featured Link Display on RSS


    Remove the unncessary tag in RSS




    Well thats all i found so far.
