To set up your own Subscriptions Macro: Copy the following code: on jtcMySubscriptions(ctSubscriptions=infinity, pretext="<p>", posttext="</p>", maxNameLength=24) { local (t); new (tableType, @t); for adr in (@aggregatorData.services) { local(title = adr^.compilation.channeltitle); local(channelDescription = adr^.compilation.channeldescription); local(channelUrl = adr^.compilation.channellink); local(rssUrl = nameOf(adr^)); local (l); new (listType, @l); l[0] = channelDescription; l[0] = channelUrl; l[0] = rssUrl; t[title] = l}; target.set(@t); table.sortBy("Name"); target.clear(); local(s = ""); local (ctOutput = 0); for adr in (@t) { if (ctOutput < ctSubscriptions) { local(title = string.replaceAll (nameOf(adr^),"'","'")); local(l = adr^); local(channelDescription = string.replaceAll (l[1],"'","'")); local(channelUrl = l[2]); local(rssUrl = string.urlencode (l[3])); s = s + preText + "<a href=\"http://127.0.0.1:5335/system/pages/subscriptions?url=\"" + rssUrl + "\" title=\"Click on the XML coffee mug to subscribe to "" + title + "" in Radio UserLand.\"><img border=\"0\" src=\"http://radio.weblogs.com/0001018/images/bullets/tinyCoffeeCup.jpg\" alt=\"Click to subscribe in Radio\"></a> <a href=\"" + channelUrl + "\" title=\"" + channelDescription + "\">" + title + "</a>" + postText + cr; ctOutput ++}}; return (s)} Paste the code into a new document in your favorite text editor. Save this document in your Radio UserLand/Macros folder, as "jtcmysubscriptions.txt". Now to use this Favorites Macro: Copy the following code: <%jtcmySubscriptions (12, "<p class=\"realsmall\">", "</p>")%> Paste the code where ever you want (in your posts and/or templates). This macro can also be implemented as a Web Service.
