No support by the author.

The code modifications make a simple change to external.php to explode a list of child forums in addition to some quick template changes to provide a common button for users to click to see the RSS feed.

1) at the Forum Home level, the xml link when clicked, produces an RSS feed for all threads in all forums. No changes made to external.php for this to work.

2) at the Sub-Forum level, the xml link when clicked, produces an RSS feed for all threads in the listed sub-forums. external.php is changed to explode the list of child forums.

3) at the Forum level, the xml link when clicked, produces an RSS feed only to threads in the that forum. No changes made to external.php for this to work.

I’m using this on an internal forum and have not had any problems. But your mileage may vary. Let me know what you think and if it works for you or not.

I've uploaded the rss.gif file that I'm using.

[7 June 2004 - re uploaded - small doc changes - no code changes]
[8 June 2004 - re uploaded - Natch's code changes, two options now available]

MediaHound, What I did (just now to debug) was revert the two templates and search for the strings that need to be replaced. Copy and paste. I think that's the easiest way to make Natch's changes.

I also uploaded the rss icon I'm using and a gif screenshot.

Everything works great now.
Just have to spend some time getting it submitted now.

Maybe some of you guys could get some use out of this: I did some research, and I've got a list of RSS sites you can submit your feeds to at:
http://forum.free-templates.com/showthread.php?t=285

This way your site might get picked up by a good source of traffic.

If you know others please add them.

Here's to RSS!

Many thanks for the hack,

MH

Yes I too would like to know.

Does anyone know of a way to edit this mod to allow the full body of each post to be included in the RSS feed as well? This way with each new post on a forum it wont just feed the thread title or post title, but each new body as well...If anyone could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it! THX!

Did you install this hack?
It does add body content to the feed; it changes the default output.
