Several boards that I read publish an RSS feed for all new topics that appear on the board.

Any chance of that being implemented here on this site? Is it even possible with this forum software?

Not a big deal to me just checking on the availability.

Thanks

I've looked at the MODS offered at phpbb and there are a couple for RSS feeds. There is a problem for me because 1) it's a fairly substantial MOD for a rookie like me; and 2) it won't work on Ver. 3.0 that should be out in the not-to-distant-future. It would be nice though, so I may poke around more this weekend. Since I took the forum portion of TexasIDPA.com off-line, it gives me a great test bed to play with without putting TexasCHLforum at risk.

How would an RSS feed work on a bulletin board?

Chas.
Charles,

Thanks for the reply.

The RSS feed on a BB works much like a RSS feed on Blogs. Any time a new post is generated an item is added to the RSS feed.

Here is an example of a feed that I get from another board I read:

HTH and let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

RSS feed for new topics?

Morning all.

Several boards that I read publish an RSS feed for all new topics that appear on the board.

Any chance of that being implemented here on this site? Is it even possible with this forum software?

Not a big deal to me just checking on the availability.

Thanks
