I too was struggling through the lack of output with standard Views 2 RSS feeds. We should should be able to do this stuff without Views Bonus Pack or Views RSS. Now one can, if one feels comfortable with the template.php file. Thanks! I too was struggling through the lack of output with standard Views 2 RSS feeds.

Drupal does the initial query of nodes to build the RSS feed. Then your code does a single query to the database for each node in the feed.

If you clear your cache, Drupal should recognize it. As for the formatting, ultimately you'll have to customize the views-view-row-rss.tpl.php template to your own needs, as you would any other template. @Tine:

I don't understand why you cannot pick your fields in the RSS display with Views 2 either but your solution should do. SHould have thought about this before. Thanks!! Great solution Tim!
