I'm not using this plasmoid anymore since I have my own desktop shell with an integrated feed reader.
I guess the official feed reader should be better by now anyway.
Actually, I'm amazed it still compiles.
Otherwise you could replace
if( !globalConfig().group(feedURL).hasKey(date) ) {
with
if( true ) {
to prevent removal of read items.

- view->setMinimumWidth(320);
+ view->setMinimumWidth(16);
I'm using a Plasma::TreeView to display the feeds.
Plasma API is not as rich as Qt's so I don't think I can do anything to help with the wrapping issue, - Oct 13 2011

Then you can checkout latest source using git :
git clone git://gitorious.org/plasma-feed/plasma-feed.git
To build and install, run:
cd plasma-feed
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
sudo make install
kbuildsycoca4
Once it appears in the list of your available plasmoids, you can add it on your desktop or in your system tray.

You don't need low latency audio for music playback.
But by using the maximum audio buffer size, Qt Media Player doesn't need to wake often (e.g only 3 time per second on my PC).
This is especially useful to save power on embedded systems. - Nov 10 2010

http://gitorious.org/qt-media-player should now work.
If checking out a git snapshot is too inconvenient, I can package a new archive.
Thanks for testing and reporting bugs. - Sep 04 2010

I tested it with a dark theme and it works now.
It's nice to see it works correctly on the desktop. Could you do a screenshot of the plasmoid with the new color settings so I can add it here.
I also added support for Solid, so it should fetch feeds when Solid detect a connection, but I can't test it. - Jan 13 2010

I wanted a panel popup showing only new messages but it doesn't seem to be your usecase.
So if I understand correctly, you're using it directly on the desktop ?
I'd like to know what features made you choose this plasmoid ?
I changed the URL handling to open in the default browser.
I'll either provide a font color and size option or look into theming support.
I'll release the new version when it's done.
What do you mean by different design ? The current design is simply a Plasma::TreeView in an ExtenderItem so it should be themed correctly.
PS: It should fetch on startup.
If you're on WLAN, maybe the network didn't had enough time to setup.
If you're showing feeds directly on the desktop, they may not get initialized properly. Unlike popups which are created when the fetch is completed. - Jan 11 2010

I could provide the option to change font color, but I'd like to know why you need a specific color ?
I made this plasmoid to be able to read feeds in a full-featured browser (unlike Akregator viewer), so I understand why you would need Firefox.
However, you may have noticed that this plasmoid is designed to remote control a browser in a single tab (using Akregator, I was opening all articles in new tabs which lead to heavy memory usage).
Unfortunately, Firefox doesn't provide a D-BUS interface to remote control it.
You would have to first write a Firefox extension to provide the interface.
But if you want, I can simply open articles as new tabs in the default browser. - Jan 10 2010

I fixed this so it should work for Qt 4.5 / KDE 4.3.
I also improved stability. - Jan 07 2010
