rss feeds and 3.5.4

Amadeus · 06-30-2006, 09:09 PM

I was wondering if there are any modifications available to make rss feed more useful with vbulletin 3.5.4. I've turned it on using the control panel; however, I get constant reports of the feeds missing new postings ...and it doesn't seem to handle replies terribly well either.

Just thought I'd see if there was anything out there that might help

Take a look at this and let me know what you think...

I love this hack. Works GREAT. Allows you to select whether each FEED will post or not or you can give each feed the option to put up a DISCUSS button that when user select it, it posts the feed in their name in the predetermined Forum.

Totally Usergroup Permission ready too.

I'd have to find the actual hack... I'll get it....

*runs to vBulletin.org*

I just figured that would give a chance to look at it and see if it does what you need. Here is the link to the hack:

I believe that Amadeus is looking for a better external.php hack not a posting hack. ;)

Like I said, it is not a posting hack, but allows posts. ;)

Yes, but his post suggests he is looking to generate a quality feed from his site, not to his site. ;)

If the thread can't be read by unregistered members it will not be listed in your feed output.
