Adding Custom Tags to Entry #169

Closed bsullins closed 7 years ago

bsullins commented 7 years ago

The image from my post is being pulled in to the feed but I need to change the actual tag that is displayed so I can use it in my MailChimp campaign. How could I customize (add/change) some of the output of the feed to conform to what MailChimp is looking for?

Current Output

<media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" 
url="https://bsullins.github.io/teslanomics//teslanomics/tesla-battery-lifespan-cover-small-compressed.jpg"/>
</entry>

Needed Output

<media:content xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" 
url="https://bsullins.github.io/teslanomics//teslanomics/tesla-battery-lifespan-cover-small-compressed.jpg" 
type="image/jpg"/>
</entry>

You need the addition of a type attribute?

This is not currently possible, and we don't have a way of detecting the image type so adding it would be non-trivial.

That said, I’d be happy to review a PR that added this feature. I do see the value.

bsullins commented 7 years ago

@pathawks yes, for this to work I need a type attribute and to change from media:thumbnail to media:content

Here is the spec from Mailchimp - http://kb.mailchimp.com/merge-tags/rss-merge-tags

170 Should fix Mailchimp considering that their specifications allow for a more file type agnostic method of signalling images.
