Name: Automatic Short Story - RSS fix
Author: DarkDragonLord
CuteNews Compatibility: 1.3.6 - * (no incompatibility reported yet)
Description: I had an issue where i used this hack and the RSS not showed anything as text, only the title/date of post. I spent 2hours to figure out that so others might have some question as that.
Requirements: The above hack.
Instructions:
Go to RSS template and in Active News, change this:

<description><![CDATA[{short-story}]]></description>


to this

<description><![CDATA[{full-story}]]></description>


If you want to be cooler and make something like the news you normally show at website with the truncate, put like this
(RSS Link Bug already fixed there)

<item>
<title><![CDATA[{title}]]></title>
<link>{rss-news-include-url}?subaction=showfull&id={news-id}&ucat={category-id}&archive={archive-id}</link>
<description><![CDATA[[truncate=200]{full-story}[/truncate]
<a href="{rss-news-include-url}?subaction=showfull&id={news-id}&ucat={category-id}&archive={archive-id}" style="font-size:0.7em;">Read More [+]<a/>]]></description>
<guid isPermaLink="false">{news-id}</guid>
<pubDate>{date}</pubDate>
</item>
