Justin,

I would like to be able to insert my forum's RSS Feed into my RSS Reader / Google page so I can see when new posts are in the forum.

A forum I frequent, Net Marketing Forum, has such a feature. It uses a 3rd party script to read the database their phpBB forum uses:

http://netmarketingforum.com/rssfeedpublisher/rss.php?feedId=1

I have checked out the feed that eblah does have, but it only shows the news. I'd like to have the last X posts listed in the feed. IE a feed for the portal page:

http://forum.startxchange.com/v-portal/

Having such a feature would bring eblah above the rest. Blogs and RSS/XML is very hot right now, and more and more people are learning how to use readers like bloglines, etc.

It is hard enough keeping a forum active.. Having a feed would make it alot easier to get people to come back more often!

Tim

Ok lazy boy I did it myself. You might want to fix it up a bit but it works fine as it is (those that want to use it you have to edit Blah.pl too so it allows v-feed).

my customized google is complete!

Thanks

I can't get RSS to work with my board.  Is there an administrator setting you need to enable?  I'm using 9.6 but whenever I try to duplicate the 3 demonstrations you made Justin, I get a 404.

Does this call on some file that I may need to adjust permissions on?  The rest of my board is working peachy.

Ahhh, ok thanks Justin.  Was there a mod or something I missed that removes the Blah.pl? from the proper path?

It's the mod_rewrite mod.  It's on the "Forum Updates" board, I believe.
