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.
Im 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.

Ok I had another question for you all. A while back we were working on getting our feed to spit out the full post, with all of the html intact, where we changed this in the external.php file:
Smileys dont show up when viewing it through bloglines (our company's aggregator of choice)...this is a small annoyance but if someone could fill me in on what to do to get smileys to show up as well that would be great...I NEED the full html so I cannot compromise that, so if it is one or the other, than I can live without smileys.
My big thing is that it seems as though the feed is only pumping out the first posts of each thread, anytime a thread is replied to it does not show up in the feed...any one have any ideas how I can remedy this situation? Any help would be greatly appreciated...Thank you!

Is there a way to have the xml icon show on each category on the main forum page? Since my subforms do not need to be expanded to see the sub-boards (All boards are visable on main index page) It'd be ideal to have the icon next to each sub-forum listed.
