Default RSS Support?

Has anyone got the forum's RSS support to work?

Forum RSS Support

I'd like to use aggregator software to monitor the forum instead of a web browser but I can't seem to get it to work.

Thanks,
Jim

P.S. This is posted in the help section, and I have recieved no answers to date. Not many people read over there.

I just tried it. It doesn't work... w/ or w/o the forumid specified.

Without the forumid, it generates a parsing error. With the forumid included (e.g., 103), there is no error, but no data either.

If you're not getting any answers in the Help Forum, your best bet probably would be to PM one of the Help Forum moderators, RichF or 96LT4. I would think one of them should be able to get you some answers from the Forum tech support folks. Good luck.

The idea is instead of surfing through all the different forums to catch up on threads with a web browser, you can use aggregator software such as Sharp Reader for Windows or NetNewsWire for the Mac, that just checks when there is a change on the site and then downloads it for you and displays it like a web browser does. You just leave it running minimized in the background.

It would work really well with a busy forum such as this one.

If you want to learn more about RSS, try searching google for it, you might be amazed.
