RDF problems [message #160769]

Right now I've almost finished backup tool for FUD Forum for users without database access (through RDF). And I noticed some bugs.

1) no message date field in ht tp://fudforum.org/forum/feed.php?mode=m&th=118734 (omg, I can't even post link to this forum?)
2) no access to RDF feed in private forums. Cookies are ignored. This is for 2.7.3, could not check with newer versions. You can try the link above with thread id for private thread.
3) different date formats in forum and thread feeds (basic=1 for thread feed, that's where I take dates from).

Also, I've got no registration email since yesterday (user Zverik).

That version of FUDforum belongs in a museum. I will reconsider your request if you can simulate it on a recent (2009 vintage) release.

I could reproduce the missing date information in the messages feed. The attached patch (against current CVS) will add it. Apart from that, it will correct a small typo in attachment information and fix XML syntax in case no data for the feed could be found.
While being at it, I added support for the date information to the RDF parser and made a small improvement to its display of the category the message has been posted in.

As far as I know FUDforum does not authenticate users individually based on their cookies. By default all messages will get into the feed. The administrator can set an user for feed authentication. The feed will then contain the messages the specified user has access to.

I can't understand/reproduce the problem with the different dates format.

OP's here.

You're right, date formats are consistent in latest version.
Still, dates are not included in thread basic=0 feed.

When receiving HTML pages of threads, cookies get checked: this is the way I backup private threads now. But when trying to get RDF feed for private threads, cookies are not looked at. Maybe you should add some authorization, like &user=000&passwordmd5=ABCDEF

Like I said I can reproduce the problem with the missing date information. The patch I attached above should add it. In case it turns out to be good enough it would hopefully be included in one of the next releases.

I think user authentication might be something worth looking into. It seems many feed readers support HTTP authentication, but it won't work on all servers (requires PHP running as apache module).
