RSS on BYC

[Xploreorganics]

Wondering if you can put a feed on this board. Now that the other baord has changed to Yuku it has RSS.

Thanks!

Can you explain how it works too? At least here I can still subscribe to posts!

 

[Xploreorganics]

RSS won't change anything for anyone else. Its just an available feed for those with an RSS reader.

Quite likely will slow the whole system down drastically also. Personally I like the functionality and speed of this board better.

Thanks for the request Xploreorganics,

We may add RSS in the future, but we've found subscription options work well and the relative newness (for many on this forum) of rss we decided to hold off.

If your technical you can experiement with this:

For example, in your RSS reader the following would return the 15 most recently active topics

you know that script only puts out 15 listings.

i would love a true rss feed here, any chance of that happening almost a year later than the original post

?

It is on the to-do list, but it is probably still a ways off.
