Subscriptions to Announcements forum

[McGyver]

This is a today's screenshot from my UserCP here in vbulletin.org...

Something doesn't seem right and actually I don't seem to have any emails being subscribed to this forum.

Perhaps an auto poster bug?

Since vb5 (currently) has no RSS feeds, I had to rig up a cron job on the vb.com server to check the announcements forum and copy them over here. This works by direct database insertion, so you wont get any e-mails, and it doesnt update the last post either.

The second I could probably fix, the first, not really.

Once RSS is added into vB5 (5.0.6, I think) we can switch back to using it.

I see, thanks for the response...

Looks like that there's no way to get notified of vB's announcements, neither on .com nor on .org...

I'm bumping this up 'cause even if now the Announcements section gets updated, something seems to be wrong with the last thread/post updating and the subscription does not work...

Since im on holiday, I cannot check, but im pretty sure the previous reply still stands, we dont use rss.
