hey it just occured to me that it would be really handy to have RSS feeds for new posts on this forum - that way you can just add a bookmark to your browser without having to nav to the site, and then click on a link if you see a post that interests you

what do other people think?

(i just checked) hmmmmmm

You should put this in support forums so they can follow it up..

I don't know what the feeds are so I am def no help.

ahhh, yes, well you should see my other thread in the support forum for more information on why this is posted here.... thanx for the hot tip though!

feeds are cool - they're a list of latest items (or other indexed data) that are updated as content is added to a site. you can opt to view feeds through a web browser, email client or through a mobile phone/pda if you want to get fancy. if you're using firefox, look in the top right of the address bar for the RSS feed icon - this means the feature is enabled (but when you click on it an error page results)

That sounds quite good actually. I might have to start using that as all I do now is, like you said previsouly, keep having to go back to check sites..

Thanks :)

OK, so i had a look at the vBulletin website and they have RSS feeds set up... here's what i think is the correct location for SS forum feeds:
