Title: rss zone and encoding
Post by: ruigato on May 27, 2008, 04:05:01 AM

My site uses latin1 encoding, if i put a rss zone feeded via a wordpress blog (utf-8) the result has encoding errors, this hapends because of latin characters like ç ã é, etc.

I know its not an NP thing but does anyone now a workround or some kind of fix for this?

Maybee somekind of service that changes encoding of the feed?
Even if i setup feedburner to give the source blog feed the result has the same encoding.

Thanks in advance

dont know if it helps but here it goes:

I had a similar problem with an rss module the solution was this:

Code:

from simplepie.org wiki

i added the lines just before "echo $item->get_title(); ?>" line at 163 and 181

"$feed->set_output_encoding('ISO-8859-9');
$feed->init();
$feed->handle_content_type();"

you colud change the "ISO-..." line for any other language.

the answers are here:

http://simplepie.org/wiki/faq/supported_character_encodings
and
http://simplepie.org/wiki/reference/simplepie/set_output_encoding

this information is relative to joomlaworks.gr rss feed module, i cant still get NP to display rss encoded in utf-8 in my site (encoded in ansi for portuguese language) feeds with the same encoding work fine tough.

thanks
