Morning,

Just an idea. Whenever I visit the website I go straight to my contributions to see the progress on the threads I am interested in. It would be pretty useful to have this as an RSS, add to google homepage etc..

I cant see this is possible at the moment, but perhaps food for thought?

Cheers.

There are RSS Feeds for each of the forums that you can use to add into Google. These are available if you change your preferences to the Big Blue skin, and then at the top of each forum an RSS Feed link is available.

We will look into the future of adding these feeds for an individual topic or My Stuff in the future.

What are RSS feeds and how do I use them?

They are a feed of data from a website that can be used by another programme to display the information. Google or a mail programme may have a system built in it that can show the content of a feed. Thus you can pull in RSS Feeds from several different places, BBC News, PH News and PH Forum, and show them in one window. You still then have to go to the site to view the full content.

If you have a customizable Google Homepage you can add them in there as an option.

And if you use Firefox then you can add them to your favourites or links bar without having to go near google.
