Is there one? I'd love to be able to configure an RSS feed on my site to have a vBulletin.org news ticker of some sort...

Aren't all most general RSS feed sites end with
/external.php?

Also wheres a option to only allow a certain forum :|

Very nice. Thanks everyone. I was able to nicely integrate it into my forum without even needing a hack. Woot! :)

Hey, I realized as soon as Danny posted that I was dealing with a standard vb feature :p Still, it was very easy to get setup with the basic advice given in this thread. So, no harm done.

Is there a way to limit the length? Apparently in VB 3.6, it's sending the entire thing, and not just a teaser and a link...

Chops off a string at a specific length, counting entities as once character and using multibyte-safe functions if available.

* @param string String to be trimmed
* @param integer Number of characters to aim for in the trimmed string

vbchop($var['text'], 500);

I have found that fetch_trimmed_title() works better, in some cases where you don't want words cut in half, etc...
