For feeds which don't provide an image, Stackla offers a scraping mechanism that allows for images to be pulled from the parent page.
Note: This service only works on pages where there is a clearly tagged image for the service to look for on the parent page.
- To activate this service, within your RSS Term setup, select the option 'Grab Image from Content'.
- From here, you should be presented with two new fields titled 'Selector' and 'Attribute'.
- Selector relates to the jQuery / CSS tag that the service needs to look for, whilst attribute defines where the image address.
The below examples outline how this process works:
Page Image:
Code: <img src="http://www.stackla.com/testimage.jpg" class="article-img-insert-ct">
Selector: img.article-img-insert-ct
Attribute: src
Facebook Image (Open Graph):
Code: <meta property="og:image" content="http://www.stackla.com/testimage.jpg />
Selector: meta[property=og:image]
Attribute: content
