    Solved: Removing using http instead of https from the feed url worked for me.

      This seems to work great for parsing the nasty xml feed!

        Just a quick note (might not be directly related to any issues described above). I recently had an error display when trying to display facebook timeline feed using getFeed. I got some "Failed to fetch ..." Error on front end. This was simply due to my RTE (rich text editor) converting my "&" characters to "&.a.m.p.;" within the Feed URL that i was supplying, every time I toggled the content between html and rte view. (so i turned "Rich Text" feature off under "Settings" tab for page/resource that called getFeed in it's content area)

        Hope this helps someone if you get the same error.

          Hi,

          Is there a way to get the details of the feed, like the author the URL to the actual content, in my case the flicker page where the RSS link was taken from.

          Thanks

            Another issue: Is it just me or does getFeed not work after updating Modx Revolution to 2.2.6? I don't know why but getFeed doesn't refresh. I always get the same output, the last output Modx 2.2.5 and getFeed generated.

                  A quick fix for the feed not updating is to do something like:

                  &url=`http://www.yoursite/feed.rss?version=[[!randNum]]`


                  randNum snippet

                  echo rand();

                    I have a similar issue like the one below, as far as I can see no answer was posted though.

                    This is part of the feed I'm pulling:
                    <item>
                      <title>Post title</title>
                      <link>http://linktopost.com</link>

                      <guid isPermaLink="false">http://url.com</guid>
                      <description><![CDATA[Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet]]></description>
                    	
                      <ev:tribe_event_meta xmlns:ev="Event">
                        <ev:startdate>February 3, 2014</ev:startdate>
                        <ev:enddate>February 7, 2014</ev:enddate>
                      </ev:tribe_event_meta>
                    </item>
                    


                    I need to display the startdate and enddate in my output, what placeholders do I use in my chunk?

                    Great multipurpose plugin Splittingred! Love being able to make any rss feed useable in MODx. One question though, does getFeed support namespaces? I'm trying to parse a Flickr feed with the tag

                    <media:thumbnail url="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4085/5151167210_daebe0f3dc_s.jpg" height="75" width="75">


                    what syntax would I have to use for the placeholder in the template? </media:thumbnail>

                      I want to get image from RSS feed. RSS feed looks like this at image part:

                      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img alt="Sissa" src="http://www.xxxx.com/xxxx/storage/cache/images/000/328/xxxx-MG-8653,medium_large.1405775680.jpg" width="533"><figcaption>Tamppausta.</figcaption></figure>]]></content:encoded>


                      and

                      <media:content url="http://www.xxxxxx.com/xxxxx/storage/cache/images/000/328/xxxxx-MG-8653,medium_large.1405775680.jpg" width="533" type="image/jpeg" />



                      Without tpl images shown in page.

                      What placeholder should I use in my template to get image?

                      TPL looks now like this
                      <h3><a href="[[+link]]">[[+title]]</a></h3>
                      <img alt="[[+title]]" src="[[+whatplaceholder]]" width="533">
                      [[+description]]
                      <p><small>[[+date_timestamp:date=`%d.%m.%Y`]]</small></p>
                      


                      All other placeholder works, but I haven`t get image shown.
