Hi all, I've updated the RSS feed and made the pages fetch and display that feed. Now only the feed had to be updated to update the pages as well. I have included a patch, however, I've never worked with git before so I hope everything is done correctly. If not, please tell me. I've removed the feeds/news-atom1.xml file, however that doesn't show up in the diff file? I would like to refresh the rest of the website as well, but changing the menu (to remove the russian part of the website for instance) requires to update all the pages, of which there are quite a lot. With my own website, I use PHP includes to keep a single 'header' and 'footer' file which is included in every page to keep updates easy. Would that be possible here as well? Does Xiph run on PHP? Are there other methods of 'including' a single header/footer that are preferable over PHP includes? On 30-08-12 21:46, Erik de Castro Lopo wrote:> Sorry, for the late repsonse Martijn.

I can't see the logs right now, but I vaguely recall that someone started porting the flac site to use the usual xiph include style, and that version is in SVN at: http://svn.xiph.org/websites-new/flac.xiph.org/ perhaps that would be a good place to start, and co-ordinate with the xiph.org webmaster about getting the new version installed. cheers, Conrad.> > On 30-08-12 21:46, Erik de Castro Lopo wrote: >> >> Sorry, for the late repsonse Martijn.
