eFront had for some time now an RSS module that could fetch and present an RSS feed inside a lesson or on administrator’s panel. However, until now we could not expose data from eFront as an RSS feed.
Well, things have changed….
The new RSS module can expose as RSS a wide range of eFront’s data. A list follows:
System
Course structure
Announcements
Forums
Calendar
Per lesson
Lesson structure
Lesson announcements
Lesson forum
Lesson calendar
Administrators can control the exposed RSS feeds for the system and lessons while the Professors can control the feeds for their lessons.
A few pictures follow that illustrate the new RSS functionality.
And here is an eFront catalog feed consumed from eFront!
