I'd love to use the feed, especially with `newposts` and OTW :)

RSS is a must have .

Just the fact that you don't have to go to the site means that you suddenly can broadcast a problem to all members instead of just to the one who happens to run into your question.

I know that phpBB has this feature, but I don't know whether Gentoo forums have it. Thanks! :)

I really would love to see the Gentoo forums getting enhanced with rss. This would make scanning for threads you can answer a breeze!

That last forum topic quoted has feed43 RSS feeds containing titles and links to posts for many Gentoo forums. They are currently polled each 6 hours and only show the top 20 posts. ( http://feed43.com/faq.html ) Some feeds are broken, but it is easy to set them up if your forum of interest is broken or not listed. For example:
  • Gentoo on AMD64
    Posts from Last 24 Hours

Bumping this to re-express my interest in RSS on the Gentoo boards.

I would really like that too... Especially if you could have multiple RSS Feeds, one for each subforum...

Feeds should reduce the load on the server as well, right?

I just wrote a Python script running on GAE for generating a feed. In page 2, there is a suggestion of using feed43.com, but it has huge latency... several hours. So I decide to write one.

If you are interested, you can subscribe to (same content)
Feed: http://yjltest.appspot.com/gentoo/forumsfeed
Feedburner: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/GentooForumsLastest

Also the code and a simple stats page
Code: http://code.google.com/p/yjl/source/bro ... /gentoo.py
Stats: http://yjltest.appspot.com/gentoo/

It scrapes "last 24 hours page" every 10 minutes, and only do on the first page. That should be enough.

Any ideas are welcome.

Updated 5/29: I added a new feed for new topics. You can grab it at http://yjltest.appspot.com/gentoo/forumsnewtopics

RSS feed for the forum

Post by tampakrap » Thu Apr 15, 2010 2:07 am

Hello

I'd like to ask if there is an option to generate an RSS feed with selected subforums, or if the forums support RSS in another way. Thanks

bump, is this coming along at all? livibetter's service is a welcome step, but for me subtopic following through rss would be of great help, instead of the half-legged no-content 1995 "you got mail" notifications. GR shows livibetter's new topic feed to avg 300 topics/week, which i know will clutter me, so per subforum feed would be most welcome.

Not sure if bumping this thread is useful, but I was also surprised to see no RSS feeds on this forum. It would be great to be able to stay informed about what happens in Gentoo land, and help others when I can.

From experience I know that the "view posts since last visit" feature is neither reliable nor convenient.

Is there any news about adding RSS feed support to the Gentoo forums? That would be a wonderful feature.

Is there any working tool in late 2023 to generate RSS feeds for the forums?

Thanks!
