Do you want to get RSS feed updates on your Wii Message Board? This tutorial will tell you how to set RSSMii up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### What you need
|
|
|
|
* An SD card
|
|
* [RSSMii](https://oscwii.org/library/app/rssmii)
|
|
|
|
#### Instructions
|
|
##### Section I - Downloading/Installing
|
|
|
|
1. Extract RSSMii and put it in the `apps` folder on your SD card.
|
|
2. We need to create a `feeds.xml` on the root of the SD card so the app will know what feeds to subscribe you to.
|
|
|
|
If you're using the Windows Operating System, you can use the [RSS Feeds Creator](https://github.com/RiiConnect24/rssmii/releases/download/v1.4.1/RSSFeedsCreator.bat) program created by KcrPL. It will automatically create a `feeds.xml` file and will copy it to your SD card!
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
<b>If you don't have a Windows computer, use this template and use your favorite text editor to make the `feeds.xml`.</b>
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
|
|
<rss>
|
|
<feed name="Example-Feed"><![CDATA[http://example.com/rss-feed]]></feed>
|
|
<feed name="One more Example-Feed!"><![CDATA[http://example.com/another_rss-feed]]></feed>
|
|
</rss>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace the "name" portion with the title you want to put for the feed. Make sure it's not very long, since there's not that much space.
|
|
Then, replace the link portion with the link to the RSS feed. You can put as many feeds as you want. Don't delete the "CDATA" part.
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
|
|
<rss>
|
|
<feed name="RiiConnect24 Medium"><![CDATA[https://medium.com/feed/riiconnect24]]></feed>
|
|
<feed name="RiiConnect24 Twitter"><![CDATA[https://nitter.net/riiconnect24/rss]]></feed>
|
|
</rss>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Save the feed you made to the root of your SD Card.
|
|
3. Launch RSSMii from the Homebrew Channel.
|
|
4. Press A to confirm you want to subscribe to the feeds. Ignore the error about ES_GetTitleID, everything is fine.
|
|
5. Once everything is done, press HOME to go back to the Homebrew Channel. You should soon get RSS feed updates on your Wii, enjoy!
|
|
|
|
Not getting any feed updates? Try an RSS feed that updates more frequently, like a feed with news for example. If the RSS feed doesn't update often, then you won't get many updates.
|
|
{: .notice--warning}
|
|
|
|
We recommend you use just a few feeds, because if you subscribe to a lot of feeds you can get a ton of mail on your Wii.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
If you're not receiving updates after a few days, you might need to subscribe to the RSS feeds again. Launch RSSMii from the Homebrew Channel again and it'll create brand new subscriptions.
