Is there a plugin or update to RSS feeds that allows you to download or share the link for a webpage or resource that is part of an RSS feed?

Don't think the RSS plugin allows for this, but maybe it does? At any rate, you could always load the RSS feed into the Custom URL plugin and do it through that. Or, you could modify the RSS plugin to do the job if it's not there already.

Hi Trevally. It would be very easy to add the "Would you like to view this in Safari" button to the web view. From there you could email, sms, tweet, Facebook, print, etc the page. Of course this would take the user out of your app. I will look into adding an email button to the web view later today. That might keep the user inside the app.

No luck on adding an email button. Well, adding the button was easy, but the webview does not cache the screen so you can't send it. Bummer.

@Red Dog - check out the HTML plugins. There's a method for detecting the current URL, which can be passed in an email as a string

Thanks for trying, I'll see if I can work out how to add the 'would you like to view in safari' button. That would work well for my app actually.

You just need to add a few lines in the index.php. No Xcode changes needed. I can send you the lines late tonight.

Great. Thanks.

Here is the code to add to the "Story Properties" section in your index.php. Around line 536: <div style='padding-top:10px;'> <label>Launch in Native App</label> <select name="json_rssItemShowBrowserBarLaunchInNativeApp" id="json_rssItemShowBrowserBarLaunchInNativeApp" style="width:250px;"> <option value="" <?php echo fnGetSelectedString("", fnGetJsonProperyValue("rssItemShowBrowserBarLaunchInNativeApp", $jsonVars));?>>--select--</option> <option value="1" <?php echo fnGetSelectedString("1", fnGetJsonProperyValue("rssItemShowBrowserBarLaunchInNativeApp", $jsonVars));?>>yes</option> <option value="0" <?php echo fnGetSelectedString("0", fnGetJsonProperyValue("rssItemShowBrowserBarLaunchInNativeApp", $jsonVars));?>>no</option> </select> </div>

Here is a screenshot showing where to place the code: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16323370/Screen%20Shot.png

Our line numbers may not be the same, so just place it just above the "button" section in the ////////////// story properties ////////// area.

@chris1 Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to look into that over the weekend. I would like to (in the future) add a button to the webview that would launch the UIActivityViewController. Then users could share the story in several ways.

Great. Thanks.

Thanks Red Dog and Chris1, Great info, that was easy to implement! I also tried adding the old "Story" rss properties like navbar color etc but it must be named differently perhaps? Because I could set them in the control panel but it didn't change what was happening on the app. Anyway, my RSS feed links directly to a newsletter pdf, so I want to be able to email the pdf as well. I had a poke around in the RD_customURL.m and there is indeed a method to "emailDocument". Any hints on how to hook it up either through json or by adjusting the pages properties in the index.php file? Cheers Darrel
