    [Forum] <RSS> How do you disable More

    My rss setup is working great. The little bugger runs out and snags feeds and posts them with no problems.
    However...
    It posts a tickler so to speak then at the bottom is a link labeled more that when clicked takes you to the source of the feed. What I 'd like to find out is there a way to make it snag the whole article? The feeds I'm using are short news blurps. I don't think it work take up that much space to post the whole thing.
    Any ideas?

    Take a look at the feed itself and see if the whole article is there to grab. If they don't send out the whole article in the feed, then no, you cannot grab the whole article.

      Taking more than an RSS feed provides is called scraping, and is theft of another's content.

      The only place I know of that puts the entire article into the RSS is mashable.com.

      To disable the "More..." link, edit the RSS feed in RSS Manager and delete it, but that's not really what you are asking for.
