I'm wondering if this website has an option to turn on RSS feeds for the various forums? I often forget to check this forum as I rely on RSS feeds for much of the news and information that I read. It might not be possible but I'm hoping that it's just a checkbox at the admin level. Thought I would ask.

Thanks - James

Unfortunately this version of phpBB software does not provide RSS feeds. I have been investigating an phpBB upgrade (or other CMSs). which provides ATOM feeds (more advanced than RSS). The issue of migration and the whole logistics of it has yet to be dealt with.

Thanks much. I'll watch for it if it does happen. Upgrades certainly are not fun!

Lemuel, if you need a hand with an upgrade, or testing an upgrade let me know.

While working on something completely unrelated, I came across a way to make an RSS feed for a site that doesn't have it. Here is the link for the violin making board:

http://open.dapper.net/transform.php?dappName=ViolinForumMessageForum&transformer=RSS&extraArg_title=Topic_Title&applyToUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.violins.ca%2Fforums%2Fviewforum.php%3Ff%3D2

If this causes a problem or you would prefer that this not be out there, please let me know and I can remove it. I do enjoy seeing the latest topic postings so hopefully it's okay that I made this.
