VB 4 seems to have the RSS feed as standard, so I don't see the need to migrate this :erm:

very very nice mod
but i have few questions
1 - the title for rss for forum with subforums does not show forum titles, only ids like this "Forum www.neformat.com.ua - 64,130,131"
2 - when i got option "Position of the RSS Icon - far to the right of the title" in main page it shows ok, but in forums with subforums it shows like this:
Attachment 114523
Maybe you can fix it? thank you

Hi Sorky
This mod isn't working with my 3.8.4 but after some testing found that it will work on a default vb style so I guess my template changes are causing a problem.

Any idea on which templates this effects?

I just want to have one forum to have a feed but at the moment it is showing all forums. I created a default vb style and it just showed that one forum - that is why I think it is a template edit. The other possibility is that I have excluded that one forum from any "New Posts" searches as it is a news forum which the users do not want to have come up when they click "New Posts"

Watching thread, please announce when 4.x version is released.

Making a RSS feed is built into vBulletin 4.x, so it's unnecessary to have a 4.x version of this add-on.

I have this installed on a 3.7.1 site. The site has two parent forums (which are actually set to not act as forums). Each parent forum has about 7-8 sub forums beneath it.

The RSS feed for each sub forum is up to date, but the RSS feed for the parent forums are not up to date. Any Idea what could be causing this?

Thanks,
kevin

Life saver. I wish I had seen this mod years ago
It could help reduce some of the google panda backlash

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
