Re: Images in RSS Feed

I was taking a look at the RssHelper file and there is case for "enclosure" which is not documented but here's how it work:


<?php
    App::uses('Sanitize', 'Utility');
   
    $this->set('channelData', array(
        'title' => 'test',
        'link' => 'test',
        'url' => 'tes',
        'description' => 'test',
        'language' => 'en-us',
        'managing-editor' => 'test',
    ));

    foreach($posts as $post) {
       
        // This is the part where we clean the body text for output as the description
        // of the rss item, this needs to have only text to make sure the feed validates
        $bodyText = preg_replace('=\(.*?\)=is', '', $post['Post']['excerpt']);
        $bodyText = $this->Text->stripLinks($bodyText);
        $bodyText = Sanitize::stripAll($bodyText);
        $bodyText = $this->Text->truncate($bodyText, 400, array(
            'ending' => '...',
            'exact'  => true,
            'html'   => true,
        ));
       
        echo $this->Rss->item(array(), array(
            'title' => $post['Post']['title'],
            'link' => array(
                'controller' => 'streams',
                'action' => 'view', $post['Post']['id']
            ),
            'guid' => array(
                'controller' => 'streams',
                'action' => 'view', $post['Post']['id']
            ),
            'description' => $bodyText,
            'pubDate' => $post['Post']['post_date'],
            'enclosure' => array('url' => $this->Html->url('/app/webroot/'.$post['Post']['image_site_thumb'], true), 'width' => '140', 'height' => '100')
        ));
    }
?>

I'm sure this can be done view the elem method but I'm not sure how to get that to work.

I'm having the same issue. I'm assuming it can be done via elem method of the Rss Helper class. http://api20.cakephp.org/file/Cake/View/Helper/RssHelper.php# (scroll down to the Rss helper class info). Here's what I have in my rss.ctp file but I can't get the elem method to work properly:
