    RSS Notifications

    Is there anyway to tell which project is issuing the feed without following the MORE link? There was one tonight showing a server was going to be down and the link didn't work.

    Re: RSS Notifications

    From my experience (which I've been able to confirm via the RSS feeds), is that the "RSS" user posts only the forums created for a specific project. I think that post you were talking about was created in the QCN forum...

    Near the top of the page is the structure of the forum you're looking at - for example, you've just mentioned was in:
    Forum -> Project Discussion -> Air and Earth -> Quake-Catcher

    That stuff should tell you were things are posted. When I've seen those posts, they have always been posted in the correct forums; I follow all those projects' RSS feeds, so I can double-check...

    When you are at the top of the heap you get used to looking down!

    Re: RSS Notifications

    On the Free-DC forum I actually put the project name into the rss feed header for this very reason. It's an option when setting up the rss feed within vBulletin..

    But I do pull all those feeds into a single forum so it's kind of necessary there.

    Did the RSS posts get turned off or something?

    Don't think so, why? I just don't think that any of the projects with specialized forums on the boards have had any news feeds over the past few days...

    DNETC had an RSS message a day or two ago about PPC/Linux. Showed up in my RSS reader. Never showed up here.
