RSS feed includes only new threads?
I've been switching lately to viewing more an more things using a feed reader (Google Reader, which I think is pretty good). However, I've noticed that TMS's only gives you new threads, when I would want to be able to see new posts (i.e., replies included).
Is there a different feed, or might this be changed? It's not very useful as-is. |

Is this what you need?
Notice the extra "lastpost" parameter in the URL. |

Yup, that did the trick, thanks!
Could you change the parameter that puts the following into the top forum page: <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Top Mud Sites Forum RSS Feed" href="http://www.topmudsites.com/forums/external.php?type=RSS2" />That's what Firefox uses to subscribe you when you click on the feed icon. |

Me? Nope, I don't work here, I just did some research on the forum software they use.

Re: RSS feed includes only new threads?
Hmm, actually, that didn't do it....
Using the URL , the difference between lastpost=1 and lastpost=0 is whether it shows the last posting in a thread or the first. It does not publish one "item" per post. Furthermore, as new posts are made, it uses the same <guid> for every item, thus preventing a feed reader, like Google Reader, to notice that a posting is new (at least that's probably why I'm not seeing replies once I see the thread show up once). |
