RSS filtering
Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hi,
Can Universal Content puller do RSS filtering by keyword so that only items having certain keywords are shown in the output?
Here is an example what is should be able to do, unfortunately this one doesn't support the latest C5 8.5.4

A couple of updates to UCP may help with solutions to requirements like this one:
1. 'URL with Form' content source, allows extra parameters to be injected into the pulled URL based on an on-page form and/or page and user attributes
2. 'Pipeline Transforms' facilitates building complex transforms by creating a pipeline of other transforms.

A similar workaround could be used with any RSS displayer and is not specific to UCP.
Within UCP It would also be possible to develop a content transform that provided filtered RSS. However, if you are going to be developing code, your efforts may be better directed to getting your existing RSS block updated to work with v8.5.4. That may be both least effort in development and have best compatibility for an established site.
On my roadmap for UCP is to create a multi-stage transform, so rather than being limited to one transform at a time, UCP would then be able to pipeline a series of transforms including inserting filters to the transform pipeline. However, such enhancement is for the future and is not available now.
