Releases for Advanced Views RSS Feed

This release includes lots of small fixes and improvements for RSS output. Thanks to everyone to collaborated on these improvements!

This release fixes compatibility with D10 and renames the module to make it more obvious what it does.

Updating is recommended for all sites.

Thanks again to everyone who collaborated on this release!

This is a fairly feature complete version of the base module suite for Drupal 9. Further fixes and documentation will be added before we tag the final 8.x-2.0 release.

#1791856: Certain html entities get double encoded
#1882274: Make the "RSS <enclosure> element" formatter play nice with stream wrappers

Changes since 7.x-2.0-rc2:

• Changed way how feed is built: use format_xml_elements() instead of theming
• Updated all preprocess functions to be compatible with format_xml_elements() element format
• Removed function views_rss_htmlspecialchars() and all calls to it - this is not done automatically by format_xml_elements()
• Updated views_rss_rewrite_relative_paths() to handle multiple elements and arrays of subelements
• Updated element definitions to account for updated/removed preprocess functions
• Added hook_views_rss_feed_alter()
• Element values are no longer going through any theme() function
• Removed theme callbacks: views_view_views_rss_fields and views_view_views_rss_field
• Removed template files: views-view-views-rss-fields.tpl.php and views-view-views-rss-field.tpl.php
• Added option for item element to output terms from hierarchical vocabularies together with their parents (and optionally with vocabulary name) as slash-delimited string
• Moved core formatters into separate file views_rss_core.field.inc
• Added new field handler/RSS field formatter for "All taxonomy terms"
• views_rss_core_preprocess_category() no longer used for feed items

Changes since 6.x-2.0-rc1:

• Removed option "Add exposed filter values to element" - this should be done automatically
• Issue #1469618: Feed not validating due to undefined entity
• Changed order of preprocess functions for elements
• Updated views_rss_rewrite_relative_paths() function

First release candidate for 2.0 branch

Initial version of 7.x-2.x branch, during a major rewrite. Definitely not finished yet, most of the main features should already work fine though.

Initial D7 release, based on patch #21 from issue #1119948. Not fully tested yet.

• Removed leftover code from Views KML.
• Added check_plain() on title.
