Hello there,

Is there a way to create a RSS feed for a forum? As a few forums I am interested in, are low traffic, so I often miss the threads in 'Whats New'.

If I got an alert in Google Reader etc, that would be ace!

Cheers,
T

Have you considered clicking on the 'RSS Feed' link at the top of the page when viewing a forum? winkhehe

There is no RSS feed button or link on my screen for any forum either.

It doesn't appear if you use the PH Classic layout in your preferences, I can only see it if you chose the Big Blue skin in preferences.

That might explain it - I only use the Big Blue skin. smile

Now we just need to get those techie types at PH Towers to implement it for everyone .... type

I've added it to the 'to do' list, but in the mean time you can either temporarily switch to big blue to find the RSS links or add them manually using the link below and then just changing the number after 'f=' to the corresponding number in the forum URL (i.e. 23 for General Gassing, 141 for P&P, etc)
