No RSS for forums

I like to check Arch forums regularly and was wondering when will Arch forums implement RSS.
I think it is very important as most forums nowadays have it.
Meanwhile the new design looks awesome all I need is RSS,
Thanks

Wish granted.
Enter this in your RSS locator: http://bbs.archlinux.org/extern.php?act … e&type=RSS and you will have Archlinux RSS. wink

Heh, I might have mentioned it a while back wink [1]. That post also links to the source so you can see what sorts of parameters to pass to make it give you different types of feeds.

The suggestion box only accepts patches.

Re: No RSS for forums

At last!!! I've been looking on and off for a month for an RSS feed!!!

This link should really be on the home page with an RSS button.

Also, could the OP mark this thread as solved so others can benefit, please?

So pleased smile

Re: No RSS for forums

I was glad when i found the old thread too, but unfortunately it seems that there is no chance to increase the number of entries of the rss feed - i only get the 15 latest.

Re: No RSS for forums

Yeah, just noticed your other "revitalising" post...

Workaround is, of course, to collect more frequently. Other than that I've tried adding &limit=50 but no joy sad
