This is a response to #5217

What’s changed?

in /administrator/index.php?option=com_postinstall&eid=700 there was an iframe for fetching release informations from Joomla.org. This PR replaces the iframe with a module feed

Testing

go to /administrator/index.php?option=com_postinstall&eid=700 and observe that on the right side there is an iframe
Apply this and go to /administrator/index.php?option=com_postinstall&eid=700
No iframe should be there but instead this:

There was a reason why iframe and not RSS was chosen originally but I
forget why

We did discuss briging back the RSS feed for the cpanel in the JUX team. The biggest problem with it was at the time it wasnt very graceful when it couldnt connect (ie during local development) but I guess without that there wouldnt be issues

@brianteeman Trying the view without internet, gracefully renders a message “Feed not found”, so I guess this is not a problem anymore…

How long did it take. There used to be a long wait before you got it which
caused issues BUT it was also on the hone page of the admin so more
noticeable then

All good. Load time is fine :)

Thanks for the PR.
Just thinking loud: Would it make sense to make that a real module instead of hardcoding it in? Like you just load a custom moduleposition postinstall and there is a regular mod_feed module set up which displays in that position (we can do that using SQL queries.
That way it would be customisable by the user. If any issues arise with loading time or if the user doesn't want that feed, the module could simply be deactivated.

I am pretty sure that is why we have an rss module in a position
postinstall in the sample data

@Bakual I can push the changes in the default.php, but changing the sql files is not something I did before, and most probably I will ruin everything there ????

zero-24 - comment - 27 Nov 2014

@dgt41

but changing the sql files is not something I did before

Example for mysql
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/installation/sql/mysql/sample_blog.sql#L143

Example for PostgreSQL
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/installation/sql/postgresql/sample_blog.sql#L164

Example for sqlazure
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/installation/sql/sqlazure/sample_blog.sql#L184

This querys need too be added to the "joomla.sql" files (please have a look into the IDs!) at the point where we add the modules. IIRC this is enough

@zero-24 what about sample_blog, sample_brochure, sample_learn and sample_testing ? these needs the extra line?

zero-24 - comment - 27 Nov 2014

@dgt41 yes you are right.

Because of this lines a the sample data files:
TRUNCATE `#__modules`;

@Bakual
Is it worth going over all the changes in the sql files, just to be able to customise/disable that module?
We already can add a feed module in CPanel, if desired.
This PR works fine here too.

(my 4 cents)

Bakual - comment - 28 Nov 2014

Not necessary. I just think it would be better code. I generally don't like hardcoded stuff like this in a layout.
But we can always do that in a later PR even after 3.4.0 is out.

Moving to RTC as we have 2 successful tests.

Turning this into a real module can be a separate PR.
