Is anyone having trouble getting rss feeds working? I'm not sure if I did something wrong but I downloaded the rss plugin and it's definitely enabled. I added a feed (feed://feeds.feedburner.com/tribunereviewsteelers) and I have it set to update every 2 hours. I've resprung and everything and it still hasn't updated yet. What could I be doing wrong?
 
is there any way to stop the popups from showing when the screen is locked. E.g. if i have 2 missed calls and a text message - the lockinfo screen shows this fine, but I also have the iphone popups showing me that I have missed calls and unread texts which is annoying as I want to see this from lockinfo only.

I have heard of popup blocker and also to turn notifications off, but I do want to still recieve the popups when my screen is not locked - does this make sense?

Have you tried replacing the ""feed:" with "http:"?

If you are having RSS issues, may I suggest downloading one of the free RSS readers from the regular app store and try your URL in that reader. If the free RSS reader does not display the feed correctly, there is no way lockinfo will display it either.

Thanks! That seemed to do the trick but now I have a new problem. When I tap on one of the headlines, I only get a few lines of the article. Is that the way it's supposed to be or am I supposed to be able to read the whole thing?

If you put the RSS link into your desktop browser, you will see the RSS plugin shows the text that is provided on the RSS feed page. I don't think it was designed to follow links.

Oh. So you're saying that the rss plugin for lockinfo will only show the headline and the first few lines or whatever. If I want to read the full articles I'll need to install an rss reader on my phone and use that to read the full articles, right?

Sort of. It looks like the RSS plugin shows all the text on the headline page. You just can't follow links.

I am not an RSS person so I don't know what RSS apps normally do. But I suspect the RSS plugin would be more bare bones than an RSS app.

Yeah, I'm not really an RSS guy either but I thought it might be good to have for football season so I can see the new articles as they come in. Sounds like I'll need to do some research to see what the good rss readers are.
 
There is a post over on MacThemes of somebody who updated the LockInfo icons to be high resolution.

http://macthemes.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794311&p=271

I was fooling around with them last night and was not able to get any higher resolution icons to be rendered.

Anybody here have an idea what this person did? I tried changing out a different icon with @2x.png as the extension but no dice. They look to have utilized the LockMS theme here.

Vivid5500,

I must be blind...where is the link to hires LockInfo plugin icons?

S-

I have no link for them. There wasn't a link included in the post. I tried to make some ones manually but they didn't turn out properly.

Was just bringing to light someone was able to get HD icons to work properly but I wasn't having any luck doing it myself.
 
Sweet Lock Screen Theme. I like the one from your Post #457 in July of 2009.

1) I didn't change the icons, they are part of this theme
LockInfoFull theme

It's available for download, the website is in french, use Google translate, register, sign in then download the theme

I have modded it quite a bit

2) NeutraFace All Caps

3) Edit the Style.css and Structure.css files

I also tried to get LockInfoFull at that specific French Web site. I looked for it there and couldn't find it. If it isn't too much trouble; I was wondering if you could send me the file. I would appreciate it. denny7@me.com. Thanks in advance!
 
Anyone have this problem on the lock screen:

When I click on a new email to read I can't scroll down when viewing the email and cannot delete it by pressing the trash icon, its like it froze. When on the home screen I can do all of these things. This also seems to cause the mail app to freeze

Yep, I have the same problem. 99% of the time anyway, the other 1% of the time it just randomly allows me to scroll??

Don't notice it affecting my mail app in any way though. No freezing, crashes etc. like you mentioned.
