Someone help me here
Re: Shortening the RSS
This question fits to my idea of
removing job description from the rss feed.
How could this be achived? I would like my rss feeds to show everything they do today but without the jobdecription. I guess it will be by changing sth. in the /_template/whatever/rss.tpl and/or the /_includes/class.RssWriter.php
Any help is appreciated.
(btw. reason for this is that I have designed ads that get messed up on the rss feed)

Re: Shortening the RSS
Hello, i want to have a short description, not to remove the whole description
Re: Shortening the RSS
you can do this:
Code:
$desc_length = 100;
$properties['description'] .= '<strong>Description:</strong><br />' . substr(strip_tags($job['description']),0,$desc_length) . '<br /><br />';
$desc_length will the be number of characters you want to show in your short description.
note that i took into consideration if you are using an HTML/WYSIWYG editor to post jobs like TinyMCE, this will strip the HTML tags from your description before returning the shortened string, or it might cut an HTML tag short and break your whole template
