News RSS Feed
This plugin displays the titles from your websites RSS feed to your players when they login as a message of the day.
New Alpha available - Testing ONLY
Features
- You can choose the feed, how often the feed updates (every 30 minutes by default), and how many items (5 by default) are displayed to your players in it's config.yml
- Your players can look at the MOTD at any time by using the /news command.
- Server administrators can force the feed to be updated at any time as of version 1.0.3.
Possible Future Additions
- New command to force the RSS feed to update (added in 1.0.3)
- Permissions (not sure why you would want that, but why not). (added in 1.0.2)
Change Log
- V 1.0.3: Added the ability for the console or a player (with the permission node news.update) to force the RSS feed to update. Seem to have fixed the problems with java 6 compatibility
- V 1.0.2: Added an info and infoOnJoin property to the config.yml which allows you to have a more info type dialogue before the news is displayed (which can be toggled on and off for the onJoin with the infoOnJoin property). I also adjusted the way that the message is sent to the players.
- V 1.0.1: The prefix in the chat can be changed through the config.yml prefix property
- V 1.0.0: Initial release, what you see is what you get.
Command
- /news - This displays the items from the RSS feed that were downloaded by the last update (this does not force an update).
- /news update - Allows the server console or anyone with the permission node news.update to force the RSS feed to update.
Permission Nodes
- news.ignore - Makes it so that a player does not have the MOTD appear upon joining the server.
- news.update - Allows the player to force an update of the RSS feed (defaulted to op)

@snowsilk
what version of java are you running, this should work on java 6 and 7 (i tested it on both), if you are not sure what version run the command "java -version"
Load is stop ....
@Jasonsj10
yup, and I just uploaded a version that works with java 6, so once it's approved, it'll be goof for all of you getting the exception about it being outdated. If you would like to get it in the meantime you can grab it here, http://dcp.wwsean08.com/dl.php?id=news&ver=latest
@cky2250 Guess What! The Recommended Bukkit is out!
@cky2250
I believe it is because I compiled it against java 7 instead of java 6, I was testing on the latest version as of last night (which to be honest I don't know the build number). I just compiled it against java 6 and believe that will fix the issue for most people. I am uploading the new version now which also has some nice updates.
what version of bukkit are you on i have tryed 1584 and 1562. Both wont load this plugin.
