Hello,

Please there is no rush on this and I know it is the weekend so I hope you are enjoying it.

I need to know what directory on the server does the RSS feeds get stored in? I changed my site over to HTTPS and some feeds are being brought in with HTTP.

I would need to know what path does EasyBlog use to store the feeds so I can restrict it with some code I have.

Is it /var/www/mywebsite.com/public_html/components/easy_blog/some directory

or is the relative path someplace else?

Hope you understand my question. Thanks and have a great weekend!

Regards,
Rob

Hello Rob,

EasyBlog doesn't store the RSS feed in a "file". Instead, they are all stored on the database and rendered accordingly when a request is made for the RSS feed.

Perhaps if you could provide us with the link to the feed and let us know which particular link are you referring to here?

Hi Mark,

This could have waited but I knew for some reason you would be answering

I realize that the feeds are saved to the DB table easyblog_posts but I was wondering where do the images get saved from the RSS feed. Since most of them are coming over as http://

Check this link out:

https://techlick.com/index.php/tech-news-i/techlick/49-Game%20Informer/20086-what-to-watch-this-weekend-minecon,-the-eurogamer-expo,-and-hearthstone

You will notice that the jpg image is served via src="http://www.gameinformer.com/resized-image.ashx/__size/610x0/__key/CommunityServer-Components-SiteFiles/imagefeed-events-minecon/minecon610.jpg

What I am trying to do is find out if the jpg's are saved in a folder or on the server or if they just reside in the database. Because I am adding https restrictions to my .htaccess file and restructuring folders that serve http://.

Thanks for your reply.

Regards,
Rob

Hello Rob,

They are actually saved in the post table (in the database) but it's odd because it should just be stored without the uri prefix. It should just be stored as //path/to/image.jpg so that it would be protocol dependent.

Hi Mark,

Exactly what I was thinking. So I have been trying to write rewrite conditions in my .htaccess file to change the absolute path to the relative path and to force certain directories to only use https.

Absolute path:

<img src="http://mydomain.com/myimage.png">

Relative path:

<img src="/myimage.png">

Maybe a if, then or else statement.

I'll keep researching but if you find out anything please let me know.

Thanks for your time. Have a awesome week!

Regards,
Rob
