Create RSS feed out of new threads in specific forum
 

I am running a blog off of vB using vBadvanced, and I am very interested in knowing how to create an RSS feed for my blog. I would need to be able to create and RSS feed out of new threads in specific forum.

This hack may already exist. If so, tell me.

Anybody?

Yes it does already exist, It's built into vbulletin.

The file you are looking for is external.php

check this page out on my site for some example feed links

There is an option in your vbulletin options page to enable rss feeds, once you enable it, your external.php file will work. ;)

An Example of the external.php page to a paticular page would be

http://www.tech-unity.com/forums/ext...S2&forumids=16
the "forumids=16" portion would be the forum you want to have output from. ;)

HTH

I get this on mine:

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

I'm using the trez_z theme, but all my themes are like that. Something I'm missing Here? Oddly enough, the second link tomshawk posted does that (using firefox as my browser)

If i did

http://www.majorfm.com/forum/externa...7&forumids=108

etc... will that work? to pull from more then one forum...?

tried that... that didn't work... how do u include from more then one forum?

ok trial and error brought me to this...

&forumids=118,119,120,121,122,123,124

etc...

that works!

Sorry I didn't get back here quicker, but

congrats on figuring it out MajorFm.com ;)

Thanks man.... its cool!
