Zvika 6 years ago in Media Tiles • updated 6 years ago • 2

Hi 

Testing action tiles and very pleased so far .

I'm trying to add new feed in hebrew

this is the xml feed 

http://www.ynet.co.il/Integration/StoryRss1854.xml

I encoded it as describes and constructed this url 

https://mtg.actiontiles.com/news.php?titleColor=00FF00&bodyColor=ffffff&backgroundColor=000000&src=aHR0cDovL3d3dy55bmV0LmNvLmlsL0ludGVncmF0aW9uL1N0b3J5UnNzMTg1NC54bWw=

You can see the results .

Any Ideas ?

Hi Zvika,

The Media Tile Generator (MTG) is not a core feature of ActionTiles, so we haven't put a lot of effort into maintaining it.


We're always glad that Customers find it useful and if we find a major problem we want to look into it.

The MTG rendering code simply doesn't account for the handling of Unicode characters - it was never intended to.


Since only a very small fraction of ActionTiles's customers use languages that depend on Unicode characters, we can only make this a feature request and add it to our lists for possible future enhancement.


Thanks for bringing this to our attention,

...Terry.
