[splendidpoint.com] Keywords for Feeder

This is an extremely simple Addon I had to code out of necessity. Someone I know wanted to import feeds from various large news sites but they wanted to only import those feeds which pertained to their niche. I noticed that XF doesn't allow you to filter the incoming feeds based on Keywords so I wrote this simple function.

What this does:

This allows you to specify keywords (separated by semi-colon ;) by which to filter feeds imported by feeder. Only those feeds which contain the keywords you specify in either their title or their content will be imported as threads.

What this does NOT do:

The friend I did this for wanted to filter ALL his incoming feeds by a specific list of keywords. So this addon has been made in that way. This will NOT allow you to specify keywords for each individual feed.

Hope this is useful to someone.

Cheers!

Excellent. I do miss the ability to restrict the feeder to specific keywords. I will try and see how this works out for our needs:)

Thanks for the add-on.

darn.......
 
Hmm. I have several feeds I don't want to restrict, but turned off a bunch of others that I do want to restrict. Guess this will not work for my needs. Thanks anyway, though :)
