One of the RSS feeds in one of my digests doesnt include a URL in the ITEM title. Because of this it links to the page that i have displayed the digest on. so when people click on it they are sent back to the same page.
Is there any way to get the digest to have no link to show up if they havent included a URL in the item title or have the link pointing to the %SOURCEURL% instead without having the other items from other feeds affected. such as using an IF statement.
Thanks in advance.
Please point out ID of the digest and RSS feed you have problem with.
Im not actually having a problem with any digest or RSS feed. The actual RSS feeds themselves doesnt have a <link> tag. there are only 2 feeds in the digest that dont have the <link> tag and they are the only ones that are doing this in the digest.
I just want to know how i can get it to link to something else other than my web page if the <link> tag in the rss feed isn't present.
Please specify such feeds (without <link>). We need them for testing.

You will need to edit html code of the digest manually:
to get rid of the link use <a>%TITLE%</a> instead of <a href="%URL%">%TITLE%</a>;
to assign %SOURCEURL% link use <a href="%SOURCEURL%">%TITLE%</a> instead of <a href="%URL%">%TITLE%</a>
I dont want to do that. I still want to use the <link> tag. I just dont want the link pointing to the same webpage that my digest is on. is there no way for it to point to source url if there is no <link> tag?
There is no way to do it now. But we'll keep you up to date.
no problem, suppose it wont do any harm just now, but it will be an annoyance to some people, especially people with visual impairment.
