News Syndication
Last Modified: April 27, 2006 20:04PM
(0.18.2)
Description

News syndication was added in Mantis 0.18.2. The syndication is done using the RSS v2.0 protocol.

Up until Mantis 1.0.x releases, the news syndication were only available for:
  • Public Projects
  • Installations with anonymous access

If the above two conditions are not satisfied, then an "Access Denied" message will be prompted.

In Mantis 1.1, support for authenticated news feeds was added. Authenticated feeds takes a user name and a key token that are used to authenticate the user and generate the feed results in the context of the user's access rights (i.e. the same as what the user would see if they were to logged into Mantis).

To get access to the News RSS as anonymous user, visit the following page:
 http://www.example.com/mantis/news_rss.php 

While a user is logged in, the RSS links provided in the UI will always provide links to the authenticated feeds, if no user is logged in (i.e. anonymous), then anonymous links will be provided.
