I tried to install the extension Syndicate RSS and i follow the instructions :

put the folder in extension folder,
add the line ActiveExtensions[]=syndicate in override/site.ini.append to activate the extensions
and clear cache : ./bin/shell/clearcache.sh --clear-tpl

but though the extension is in the extension list of the admin site, the syndication page is
still the same and there is nothing new.

Can somebody help me to achieve the installation ?

Many thanks for your help

I am having basically the same problem. The only change is that I can now choose podcast as one of my options in the rss tab, but when I click to see the xml file that is created it says that there is a fatal error in the file kernel/rss/feed.php. I think the problem is that the code for ezrss is in the kernel for some reason, so the new code is not being called. Does anyone have a similar problem or any solutions?

Are you sure, you access the extension via /syndicate/list?
Seems to me, you're accessing the original rss module. You can download a new version, I have fixed several bugs.

Out of the new Install Guide:
----
1. Normal administration via /syndicate/list

2. User side creation: Grant "Create"-Right to specified user (group)
Define Scheme in syndicate.ini (see examples given)
Call /syndicate/create with node ID from Source and class identifier

3. Data fetching: fetch(syndicate, feed_by_source, hash(SourceNodeID, 34))

fetch(syndicate, feed_by_version, hash(Version, podcast))

You can by the way add a new tab in your administration interface. Edit your menu.ini (the overridden one) and you have a simple way to access it.

Ok, thanks for info Pascal

via "/syndicate/list" it works,

just one more precision, in syndicate/settings/syndicate.ini there
is a default class setting set to weblog :
DefaultClass=weblog

if you don't have the weblog class available, it comes to an error,

you can change it to article to avoid the problem :
DefaultClass=article
