RSS Feed possible?

[bkra13]

Ray - is there an option with this board to enable RSS feeds?  Makes it easier to keep up with what's going on..

thanks!

Bernie,

SMF isn't particularly RSS friendly, but I made an "active bookmark" in Firefox with this URL:

http://mn-msta.com/index.php?action=forum#1;type=rss;action=.xml;limit=20

and it gives me the latest posts (I think, I only set it up after I saw your post...) on the forum. I guess I'll know more after I post this.

The forum has RSS feeds enabled and therefore provides RSS feed support. I have not tested the forum's support for RSS, but it should work. There is a mod which I'll look at installing which will put an RSS icon on each board to make it easier to subscribe to a feed for each board.

Here are some feeds which should be available from the forum.

The default feed is the 5 most recent posts:
http://www.mn-msta.com/index.php?action=.xml

There are several "sub-actions" available to this action, specifying exactly what to display:

Recent Posts (displays the most recent posts that you can see)
"Sub-action": recent
Default: Shows 5 most recent posts
Available options:
limit=x - display the "x" most recent posts (if number is less than 5, it will display 5. If number is larger than 255, it will display 255).
board=y - display only the recent posts from board "y"
boards=x,y,z - display only the recent posts from the specified boards
c=x or c=x,y,z - display only the recent posts from boards in the specified category/categories
Example: http://www.mn-msta.com/index.php?action=.xml;sa=recent;board=72;limit=10

News (displays the first post from the most recent topics that you can see)
"Sub-action": news
Available options:
limit=x - display only "x" items
board=y - display only news topics from board "y"
boards=x,y,z - display only news topics from the specified boards
c=x or c=x,y,z - display only news topics from boards in the specified category/categories
Example: http://www.mn-msta.com/index.php?action=.xml;sa=news;board=72;limit=10

Members (displays most recent members):
"Sub-action": members
Available options:
limit=x - display only the "x" most recent members
Example: http://www.mn-msta.com/index.php?action=.xml;sa=members;limit=10

Profile (displays the "profile summary" data in a nice XML feed for the specified user)
"Sub-action": profile
Required option:
u=x - display the profile info for user whose ID is "x"
Example: http://www.mn-msta.com/index.php?action=.xml;sa=profile;u=150
