Any chance we could get one RSS feed for each forum instead of a single RSS feed for the entire messageboard? Would be nice, as I'd like to keep up with whats posted in certain forums but could care less about what's posted in others.

Click on the RSS icon next to the board you are interested in.

Hmm am I blind? Why am I not seeing these rss icons? The only place I see anything about RSS is the "RSS" link below the header up top, right next to "Wiki". Should I be seeing some icons here:

??
Cause I don't.

Try a different forum skin, perhaps. I don't see them either - I'm using the default skin.

remember the debate about pnr access, i sure i remember suggesting individual rss feeds, and they've been staring me in the face all along..
i use the simple machines skin i believe, and i have the individual rss thingies.

Here's what I see.. I've circled the icon I'm talking about:
-
Added to default theme, but it annoys the crud out of me. Do the little orange icons bug anyone else?

Yes.
It's different. I guess we can get used to it. :dunno

I fear change

Gah, blue isn't any better. People who want RSS per forum - what if it was just listed on a separate page? Click the RSS link at the top, takes you to a page with links to all the RSS feeds. ?

Try a blue one at the beginning of the board name rather than the end.

If it is available in another theme, that should definitely be good enough. Or just make the RSS link at the top lead to a page that lists out all of the various RSS URLs. It does look pretty annoying to have 15 of them on the front page.

Maybe this icon would be less distracting.
-
It's worth a shot. Normal web standards don't usually have the pool of RSS links available to be used from the main page - they just have them listed somewhere reasonable on the site for reference purposes. The user finds them, adds them to their preferred RSS client, and never clicks those links through the default browser pane again.

Yo saint, sorry to cramp your style. Ya if you just wanted to list the RSS feeds on a separate page that would be perfect as well. Then you don't have to show the little icons.
Btw, I just switched over to the SMF theme (I didn't know there were themes to begin with!) and I see not one, but TWO RSS icons next to the Forum names. I assume that is because you added the other icon manually.
Like I said, just add a page that lists out the RSS feeds and that would be perfect! Thanks guys!

Good lord, get rid of those blue buttons on the main Msg boards page. They are horrible!
-
You could animate them to make them better. >:D
;D
-
make it stop, they're everywhere.
im using SMF skin and they are on new unread posts too, one for each thread, its horrible :(
-
Hehe I think the final solution is just create a separate page listing all the RSS feeds for the forums.

I made a page on the wiki:

Excellent! Even better because I didn't have to do it! :)
