PHP Devnetwork on your desktop!

Post by sam »

Well all you windows users are in luck, there is a program out there called klipfolio which allows you to have streaming news delivered directly to your desktop. I have just made a phpdevnet forums feed so you can keep upto date on the forums at all times...

First download klipfolio: http://www.klipfolio.com
Then get the devnet klip: http://www.evilwalrus.com/sam/phpdev.klip

Cheers Sam

I did this for a couple of the forums that I moderate on and it's one of the best features we ever added. I did notice that it only displays the topic titles where as the ones I hooked up displayed Topics and user names. Perhaps it cause I hooked the klips up for vBulletin and the klip for this site is for phpBB? Anyways good to see that kind of user interaction here.

btw - The default klips are programmed to refresh and pull information from the RSS sourse like every 120min. If you want real time interactive go to Program Files>KlipFolio>myklips and open the klips up in notepad. Scroll down to where you see

Code: Select all

<setup>
		<refresh>
			<!--how often, in minutes, this Klip should look for new RSS data-->
			120
		</refresh>
</setup>
And change it to 1.

I can easily add the usernames, that wouldn't be difficult. Is it really needed though?

No it's not really needed, but it's a nice feature. To know when someone new responds to the same thread instead of wondering if you've read it.
