Title: RSS feed and forums...
Post by: Criguada on 2007.09.06, 09:50:12
Hi Kim,
I just discovered OS2World's RSS feeds.
I find the "Latest Forum Threads" feed very interesting, but there is one fundamental problem: everytime I click on an item I am brought to the main page of the forums, instead of the article I clicked on.
Is this a known problem? Can this be fixed?

Thank you
Bye
Cris

Hi Cris,

Yes, this is a know problem and issue (http://www.os2world.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,63/topic,335.new/#new) with the url hack to provide rss feeds; the forum script itself doesn't support rss feed; but by adding a few parameters to the SMF forum index file; I was able to create a false feed; problem was that as you mentioned that the there is know direct urls.

To get real RSS feed I would need a script to create this from the forum data; currently looking around for that.
