Create RSS feed out of new threads in specific forum
I am running a blog off of vB using vBadvanced, and I am very interested in knowing how to create an RSS feed for my blog. I would need to be able to create and RSS feed out of new threads in specific forum.
This hack may already exist. If so, tell me. Anybody? No members have liked this post.

The file you are looking for is external.php check this page out on my site for some example feed links http://www.tech-unity.com/pages.php?getpage=RSS There is an option in your vbulletin options page to enable rss feeds, once you enable it, your external.php file will work.  An Example of the external.php page to a paticular page would be http://www.tech-unity.com/forums/ext...S2&forumids=16 the "forumids=16" portion would be the forum you want to have output from. HTH

I get this on mine:
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below. I'm using the trez_z theme, but all my themes are like that. Something I'm missing Here? Oddly enough, the second link tomshawk posted does that (using firefox as my browser) No members have liked this post.

Thanks for your response, however, I knew I could view the RSS output by looking at external.php in the browser. I wanted to know how to view a feed created by my site's RSS output. I now realize I need an aggregator or RSS reader. I was able to submit my RSS feed to NewsGator and view it there in NewsGator Online.

I use http://www.rss2js.com/ to convert the RSS feed from external.php to JavaScript to include in a standard HTML page.
Hope this helps Chris. No members have liked this post.

Thanks for that great tip, Chris. Eventually, I found some PHP code to create a file to display the feed as article links. So I called it article.php. I can't remember where I found it so here is the code in full:
