Feeds in phpbbs

How to enable and where do I see it
To enable the feed in its basic form, go to: ACP>General>Feed settings
1)Set "Enable Feeds" to "Enabled".
2)Set "Enable board-wide feed" to "Enabled"
Leave all the rest default to start with and Submit the change.

Sorry? Hate to sound stupid, but why? :?
Only feed I'm interested in is the beef casserole in the oven at the moment. Fancy a plateful Suff? :D

Just a very little bit Louise? You can have some nice bread too for mopping up the gravy :D

Love one but this is about ease for me.

With feeds I can connect a feed reader and pull new posts into another program, not ostensibly a browser and read/answer posts from that app instead of having a great big browser on my screen.

It's quicker for me and less likely to have someone looking over my shoulder asking why I'm talking to you all instead of working.

Sorry Suff - all of us mods are doing our best to get this new board up and running for everyone. We would ask for eveyone's patience until we can get it all sorted.

Thank you :)

I know.

It's a few clicks in the admin control panel.

If you don't ask, you don't get.... 8-)

Keep up the good work. I know that this is a LOT of work. I set one up two or three times a few years ago. It's not quick and not obvious. Also I'd guess nobody has screenshots or listings of the old categories and groupings. It takes time to work it out....

Feeds. What of?

I have complained to the BBC about their useless feeds that take up acres of my screen and end in the middle of a sen...

Then, if I want to, I have to click to find out it was something I could not care less about - twitter, FB, like, dislike, press this, press that, EU this, stock market....

Now, F1 I would be interseted in.....

And you don''t always get what you ask for either 8-)

This time you guess wrong Suff, we do actually have exact listings of what was there and where it all was :D
At the moment we're still working on what boards are wanted/needed, and how to group them. Rather than keep chopping and changing, we'll do the grouping all in one go, once we're happy and it's all settled down a little bit :)
