I'm looking to make stuff like release lists and such to feed into the f13 frontpage. I really dislike how Google Calendar formats their RSS feed so I'm looking for completely customizable content.
Right now, the only good option I see is ListGarden. Anyone know of anything better
I'd say Textpad, but if you're hand-editing a textfile anyway, you may as well just hand-edit the list directly in the site and skip the whole Produce The RSS -> Consume The RSS steps. Unless RSS is markedly easier for Nucleus to consume than a raw text plugin. You could also have a plugin transcode the Google Calendar RSS feed so you can keep maintaining it there and get the format you like.
THIS IS THE MOST I HAVE EVERY WANTED TO GET IN TO A BETA
Magpierss is a PHP RSS feed parser. However, it currently bugs out on the Google News feeds which is really pissing me off so no guarantees it will work.
Here's a page that shows you how to do a simple RSS feed setup and then all you have to do is populate the MySQL table with data. PHPMyAdmin would work for that in a pinch.
On a lot of my sites aggregating RSS feeds is what I have been doing for several years. Bring in all the feeds and then send them out as one feed. I do it in ASP though.
