request: RSS feed of "Active threads" page (in General)


Sukotto [lookingglas] October 7 2005 6:08 PM EDT

We have rss feeds for each individual forum, may we also have one for the active threads composite page?

If you do that, I guess you'll also need to add the Active Threads page as a separate link on the forum list page

so it's easy to find.

no, that's silly.

subscribe to the ones you're interested in separately, and have your aggregator... aggregate them.

While we're on the topic of RSS, is it possible to get more than ten at a time from the Auctions feed? It seems like it just gives ten "random" auctions every hour or so and they don't appear to be any order, either.
I suppose a "Rare Auctions" feed would be really sweet, too, but that's something else =)

upped auctions feed to 30

hopefully that's enough for your aggregator to track things properly

It's still ten on my end, but now it's the ten most recent - which is a whole lot better.

I'm getting 30 entries now. It's working great, thanks Jon!!!

atom is clearly overkill here
