A Few Questions on RSS Feeds, Searching, and Tags

Ok, so in our app we have an RSS feed. We want the user to be able to check certain tags to filter their RSS feed. For example, if they were to check 'Test 1', all articles in the RSS feed tagged 'Test 1' would show up, and nothing else unless they check other tags as well.

So far I have this tag page: Image

With events like this for each tag: Image

(This is how I have the local storage variables set up): Image

So now I'm at a bit if a road block. I'm not sure how to make tags in the RSS feed itself for the app to sort with. How would I go about doing this?

Second, I want to have a search page so the user can search for a key term or date to find a specific article in the RSS feed. I have a search page made, but I'm not sure how to make it functional. I found the documentation on search bars, but it looks to be working with a database. I'm not sure how that would work. Would I need to have all of the information from the RSS feed go to a database somehow?

This is all I have so far for the search page: Image

Hello,

You use action set property correctly.
You should send all values as request parameters for your service.

I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean. Could you be a little more descriptive? I am rather new to this.

Could you clarify what have you tried and what exactly does not work?
Could you check are there any errors in console? This (http://devcenter.appery.io/documentat...) should help.

It's not necessarily a problem that something doesn't work. I don't know how to make it function in the first place. I need to find a way to make my app read something from the RSS feed as a tag, and I don't really know where to start with that.

Hello!

Unfortunately custom app logic is outside the scope of our support. But if you clarify what is not working we'll try to suggest something.
