    Exclamation RSS Feed - Limit to certain forums

    Hey everyone,

    A few users have requested that feeds from other websites being re-posted here be taken out of our forum's RSS feed. I've come up with a solution for this.

    If you would like to subscribe to every forum category other than the News Discussion forum, use this URL here.

    Alternatively, if you would like to individually subsribe to certain categories, you can click the new RSS feed icon located at the bottom of the forum (looks like this ) or you can click here.

    If you have any other suggestions about the RSS Feed, let me know.


    Thanks.

    I use Chrome. In Chrome, that URL opens the news feed it's linked to, which is simply the unformatted feed (see this screen capture). So the solution is not very useful to me.

    I read many of these sites anyway, so I still don't see the use in including their news feeds at this forum. In my opinion, it's not useful to have them here.

    Ah I see, by default Google Chrome doesn't render rss feeds so you will need a third party website or program to do it such as feed burner. I'm going to be fixing this all up over the next week but tomorrow I'm moving and then going camping so I'll be out of the loop for a few days. Upon my return I'll address this.
