I want to display posts from 1 of my forums on an rss feed generator on my main menu page outside vB.

Im using a dynamic rss feed generator obtained here
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/gajaxpausescroller.htm

But I cant for the life of me find the rss feed link for the different forums on my board.

Ive tried searching and all the rss posts I find show me how to get rss feeds from external sites to auto post on my board. Im using that already and know how to do that.

Im looking to take content from my own forums and display it elsewhere.

Is it possible?

This area in the manual should help - External Data Provider (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/vboptions_group_external)

Thanks Lynn

so I enabled the javascript part and put this

<script src="http://www.yourdomain.com/forumpath/external.php?type=js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (i in threads)
{
document.writeln(threads[i].title + " (" + threads[i].poster + ")<br />");
}
//-->
</script>


but it shows all posts. How do I display only posts from 1 forum? example f=16 ?
