3950	enhance fetch_rss to optionally have a variable cache timeout	DD32	anonymous	"'''Issue:''' Plugin developers want to check a RSS feed only once per day.[[BR]][[BR]]
'''Current Solution:''' Define MAGPIE_CACHE_AGE to the timeout value before retrieving RSS feed.[[BR]][[BR]]
'''Issues with that solution:''' If multiple plugins want to use different timeouts, its impossible, Only the first item that uses fetch_rss may specify a timeout.[[BR]][[BR]]
'''More Elegant solution:''' Allow fetch_rss() to accept a cache timeout: fetch_rss($rssFeedUrl,24*60*60) [[BR]][[BR]]
'''Other Notes:'''[[BR]]
Patch attached to make this possible, At present All RSS feeds are cached for 1hour, unless MAGPIE_CACHE_AGE is set beforehand.[[BR]]
This also allows developers to disable the RSS cache by specifying a timeout value of 0 seconds. This is not aimed at plugin developers, but mainly towards developers working on any Administration issues which may require constant RSS updates."	enhancement	closed	normal		General	2.2	normal	wontfix	has-patch 2nd-opinion
