This is such a lovely community that I visit this place multiple times a day. But I was wondering if there is a XML or RSS feed for the forums. That would be awesome.

Sorry for the off topic post but I am unable to post in the Acurazine News forum

 

OK I searched for a bit and it seems the vBulletin (The software this site uses for forums) has an RSS generator inbuilt. I can now access the new posts from my google home page.

We can access the RSS by inserting external.php? in the URL.

For eb. the Third Gen TL forum can be accessed from the URL:
https://acurazine.com/forums/external.php?forumids=1
and for Third and second gen it is
https://acurazine.com/forums/external.php?forumids=1,2

To access the whole of TL forum it is simply
https://acurazine.com/forums/external.php

Hope it helps somebody.

 

Added to google reader. Just what I wanted

 

I have RSS on my Safari Web Browser. What exactly is it?

Check out wikipedia for a detailed explanation, but in short it creates a dynamic link to some content. I usually put the RSS feeds across the toolbar -- so when you click on them they will list the current stories on that site - not just stale content. So in this case if you create an RSS to the TL 3rd gen board it will list the current topics being discussed. Click on that topic and it will take you right to the thread. You can look at that list anytime you want without loading the page.

 

Alright thanks a lot^^. Sounds cool... RSS feed for AZ!!
