We provide a standardized, yet customizable service to seamlessly post RSS feeds, XML feeds, and YouTube videos directly to your Discourse forum.

  • Smart Video Sorting: Automatically distinguish between YouTube Shorts and standard videos, routing them to different categories per channel.

  • Custom Templates: Personalize every post with unique headers and footers.

  • Onebox/content: Choose between a Onebox preview (link to the original site) or displaying the full content of the message.

  • Flexible Polling: Choose your frequency—from every 5 minutes to daily, weekly, or at a specific scheduled time.

  • XML Versatility: Advanced flexibility in how we parse and handle complex XML data.

There is no information about this service on our website yet. We have our own integration software VISIE Connect which is used by various companies for system integrations.

We recently added this standardized feature (handling RSS feeds) to VISIE Connect, integrating with the Discourse API. On request we can add more features to VISIE Connect to connect to Discourse forums.

Discourse has built in options for categories to be read by RSS.

For Importing RSS feed how is your service different from the Discourse RSS plugin?

7

Yes, I tried the RSS plugin myself some time ago. Is is a great simple to use standard solution for most of us. But for our own forums we wanted more flexibility.

The VISIE Connect feature currently offers the following advantages:

  • Customize the post with a header and a footer per feed
  • Topic title customization (prefix and postfix)
  • Polling minimum every 5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes with the plugin)
  • Polling at a specific time each day
  • Other customized polling options
  • Choose between Onebox or full content
  • Distinct YouTube videos from shorts
  • Handling of XML feeds

It’s always a good thing to see people building and selling Discourse-related services, but honestly, even assuming it’s completely legitimate, your offer would inspire more trust if you had a proper website to explain and showcase your services, features and plans, and any required legal information.

As it stands, the way you’re presenting this paid service would be a no-go for me. As others said, you should really work on this before trying to sell. It would benefit both yourself and potential clients :slight_smile:
