we need a gbpvr news feed, so updates etc can be displayed to most users on the main menu. there needs to be an easy way for this information to be updated and for old information to be removed.
requirements
- a form to easily enter the update info eg "My Videos: Major update, lots of bug fixes." (one line of info since its for a ticker).
- a expiry date for info (eg plugins updates expire after 3 days, gbpvr expires after a week).
- only registered users can update this xml file.
- someone needs to maintain this, not just gbpvr, but htpc news in general (it would get dull if it just keeps saying "my videos updated! again!"
.
- we need someone to host it, im not sure if this will work on the wiki, although it would be better so you dont need to register a new user again.
so anyone know how to do this, all via webforms? can anyone host this? anyone want to maintain this?
thoughts? suggestions?
