I am trying to understand how to use SyndicationItem
to display feed which is RSS 2.0 or Atom compliant.
What property of SyndicationItem
gives me the entire description of the post. It appears that there is a Summary
property but per MSDN, it gives only the Summary. Also I have noticed that in my RSS feed reader, some RSS feeds show only a few lines of description and I have to click and go to the website for the full post. But in some feeds, I can see the full post within the Feed Reader.
Can someone explain how all this comes together?
PS: My web page lets user enter a RSS feed address and I need to validate if the feed exists. If it does, I need to grab the last x items and show the feed's title and full description
