Syndicate/RSS Feed Field Can't Post

Hello,

Our site is largely made from links to news articles posted elsewhere. However we create individual articles for each link instead of a simple list so we can embed these individual articles using SSI into various templates to build email newsletters. We use a custom field ($art_field5$) to include the hyperlink to the actual article.

So that syndicate links opened the actual article vs. our built page, the code within the prior syndicate.js looked as below:

syndicate.article_title[ syndicate.index ] = '$art_name_je$';
syndicate.article_url[ syndicate.index ] = '$art_field5$';
syndicate.article_date[ syndicate.index ] = '$art_date_je$';
syndicate.article_summary[ syndicate.index ] = '$art_summary_je$';

Now the snydicate.js looks like:

syndicate.article_title[ syndicate.index ] = '$article.title:javascriptSafe$';
syndicate.article_url[ syndicate.index ] = '$published.articles.url$';
syndicate.article_date[ syndicate.index ] = '$article.date:javascriptSafe$';
syndicate.article_summary[ syndicate.index ] = '$article.summary:javascriptSafe$';
syndicate.index++;

With this code the syndicate opens the small page we've built vs linking directly to the actual article. Ideally I would like the syndicate.article_url to connect to art_field5. How can I do this? Do I need to create another Publish Rule?

Thanks,

jferry

Have you tried:

syndicate.article_url[ syndicate.index ] = '$article.art_field5:javascriptSafe$';

Ahhh Dave,

If only I were as smart as you. That did it.

Thanks,
