RSS Feed On Basic Home (1 Viewer)

[Kotik]

Hello there.

Thank you for the great skin.

May someone please inform me if it is possible to disable/remove somehow the RSS Feed Context from Basic Home?

The situation is like this:
I use InfoService for MyWeather plugin only and i have the RSS Feed option disabled and as a result on Basic Home i get an ugly bar with the msg "Rss Feed Is Disabled"

So is there any way to remove this bar and still use the InfoService plugin for the weather only?

Thanx in advance.

Find these in the Basichome.xml and delete them, remember always make a backup.

Thanx for the quick reply.

I did manage to find the "Rss Item" entry and deleted it. As a result the text within the bar is gone BUT the bar itself is still there and i guess it is cause i could not find the "Rss Background" entry in the .xml file.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Bit drastic editing the code this is what the menu editor is for, check the wiki this explains how to disable and tailor almost all of the basiic home items.

For the RSS feed options check here
