RSS Feeds Show Unapproved Ads
 
Hello,
It seems logical to me that if an ad (or post for other products) requires approval that it should not show up in a RSS feed until such time that this approval is granted.
I'm seeing ads show up in feed locations before they are approved. This creates bad links since the product is not yet visible to the public.
Not sure if this should be in the mods section or part of the general functionality of external.php, but it would seem the fewer bad links on a site, the better. ;)
Thank you.

easy enough just compare this to your code in external.php you will see what I did ;)

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

This works great. Thank you. I suppose the same could be true for expired ads and auctions that have closed. Even though the links are still viable, they lead to dead ads.
I realize that once the ads are cleaned up, that this issue will resolve itself, but if you leave ads online for a period of time, it may not be you want to continue to feed them.
Is it easy enough to exclude expired/closed ads/acutions.
Thank you.
