RSS feeds

[Chris M]

Tim, I wanted to let you know that I've been using the "New Posts" button at the top of the page, but it has me wondering how difficult it might be to create an RSS feed out of this button?

Thanks,
Chris

there is a module that you can load on the forum that allows you to do the feeds... of course Tim woud lhave to do it - but there are tons of links to that in google for example/.

See the link above for more information on RSS feeds.

You can subscribe to RSS feeds using Firefox or the latest version of IE.

Looks like it does the top 10 THREADS as opposed to POSTS.

Bummer. I guess that's because most really busy forums would be crushed if hundreds of people were subscribed to their RSS feed (and it showed each individual post)

I'll dig around some more and see what I can come up with...

Thanks for tryingTim!

I have a version that gives you every post :)

The links into the forum aren't working yet though... stay tuned. I'd have it done already but the version of MySQL (database) this web host uses doesn't support select subqueries :(

Check your PMs brother.

I have a new feature you can help me test :)
