Very nice looking! Have you thought about adding an option to share the news?

Does it have thumbnails for each row? I did not see that as an option in the JSON of the posted read me instructions. The older RSS Plugin does the thumbnails nicely. Spices up an otherwise boring set of news headlines.

I am on test after buying this plugin yesterday. It does not have any list as the simple rss plugin but displays page by page. What I encountered is: title :ok description: only shows the sub-title picture:ok link: is ok if there is a picture which directs to the original page which is not "clean". Does not have scroll option in the CP, I played with the code and it is scrolling now. Any other experiments? Bayram

Hello Bayram Here is a screenshot of my usage of the other RSS Plugin: http://s17.postimg.org/a5kv0kie7/image.jpg For that particular RSS Feed, I had chosen not to show the description field because they were often three lines of text. I like being able to have thumbnail images and transparent rows. The header image is also essential. Can you post several screenshots of your experiments with the new plugin? Also, you may want to send your code improvements to the Developer for future updates. Thanks!

Hi Niraj, Thanks for your kind feedback. I will post screenshots once I am with my Mac in the evening.What I was expecting from the new plugin is to have the article in full in a clean way without any other ads or boxed items as the web site. It provides a clean shot at the first screen but limited to title, pic, subtitle, even some more but not the full article. Might this be a copyright issue?? Bayram

Some screenshots of the new plugin on IOS7 simulator. BT30 Self Hosted. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10050914/cleanRSS.pdf If you want to enable the scroll just go to Das_clean_rss.m file in Xcode, make a search (cmd+f) of scroll and play with the UIScrollView. Bayram

Thank you Bayram for the screenshots! It seems that it does not meet my needs of having a list with thumbnails. Am I correct with that assumption?

Although it looks no list with thumbs does exist, as far as my usage of the plugin, the best answer could be given by the developer if the code might be modified for that usage or not. I would personally prefer that as well. Thanks, Bayram

Thank you Bayram. Now I understand this plugin. It shows each individual article in a clean format. Since there is no "list", the left-right arrows helps one navigate through the RSS Feed. Seems the two plugins could be combined! :-) -- Niraj

Custom List view coming up in the next update. @Korkut Ata to have access to articles in full is a requirement of the rss feed you have created. If you are pulling info from a public site rss, 3 of 5 times they only allow rss access to a summary of the article. the "link" option provides the full url link to the article which is in normal web view format. Just let me know any features you would like and I will see how it fits into the clean format.
