Forum Specific RSS Feeds?
While I see two RSS Feed linls listed here, is there a way to access only specific forums (i.e. Blue Angel Upgrading or Blue Angel Accessories) with an RSS Feed Link?
Thanks in advance for your answer!
Why don't you add:
Code:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="XDA-Developers News" href="http://xda-developers.com/news.rss" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="XDA-Developers Last 30 Topics" href="http://xda-developers.com/forum-30.rss" />
to the HTML Head field?
I appreciate your response, however if I'm reading your code correctly this would give me the last 30 posts, regardless of forum. I'm only interested in posts in the BA forums (either BA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewforum.php?f=23
or
BS Upgrading:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewforum.php?f=24).
Any ideas on this? I'm currently beta testing NewsBreak and would like to include feeds specific to my device.
TIA!

I think the same. You must order the phpbb_topics table by the last message post (time/id) and pick the first 30 post_id 's... Smt like this will do afaik:
Code:
$sql = "SELECT *
FROM " . TOPICS_TABLE . "
ORDER BY `topic_last_post_id` DESC
LIMIT 0, 30";

Great! Just I am looking for.
Hi,
I agree: it should be very very usefull to have a different rss for each forum, in order to sync only that forums of your interest...
Any idea?
So, is there an rss feed for each forum yet? I don't need the feed for the whole xda phone world!
Yup, it's the same for me. I'm only interested in maybe three forums.
Any chance of getting individual feeds?
I am using SPB Insight as my news feed reader and have sucessfully subscribed to just the ones i need using varations on the following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=312
All i did was change the number on the end to reflect the sub forum i wanted. 312 being the Trinity Upgrade Thread.
Is it be possible to be notified of all new posts, not just new threads ?
It would be nice if we could subscribe to specific threads as well It would be handy for the bigger topics (Kitchen threads etc).
rss of new posts, not only thread.
Not seen any answer to the same point posted couple of posts above.
Is it possibile to subscribe and get updats also for new posts, not only new threads?
Thx
Vic
Yes is it posssible to subscribe to a particular thread?
Yes, please... me too... if I could subscribe to specific threads, it'd be absolutely great!
Alternatively, I guess I can just reroute all email notifications from subscribed threads into my rss reader.. although the result won't look nearly as clean as if an RSS feed could just be directly tied to a subscribed thread..
Thanks!

some numbers for hermes Rss feeds : 305 -355 -306
some observation: the numbers are in order of creation of subtopics so there is a logic in it but no logic in it example: hermes WM6 thread opened much later than other hermes threads so its number is 355 the others are 305-306 are in order...
How do I see the newest post in each feed?
I seem to be able to get the first post in each feed, which is no good for me, considering some threads are 350+ posts long and I just want to read the last few posts in that thread.
Currently, I just keeping getting the first post over and over.
Hi folks,
I've added various forums (sub-forums?) to RSS Hub and it's working great apart from only showing me the 15 most recent new treads-can i increase this number?
I'm currently using URLs like this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=419
Thanks in advance!

RSS Subforum feeds don't work in Yahoo reader
For whatever reason, I'm not getting the subform listing to work with the RSS feed of Yahoo. Other RSS feeds work, including the RSS feed from the top-level (i.e., all new posts across all of XDA Developers).
I'm using the form of:
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=419
Any ideas? Did this suddenly stop working?
Hey, so we can read post on our cell.
please provide subforum RSS as well.
i believe you can already subscribe to sub-forums. Just not single threads.
You can see the forum id in the url of your chosen sub-forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=312
All i did was change the number on the end to reflect the sub forum i wanted. 312 being the Trinity Upgrade Thread.

Will someone give us RSS as new year presents?
are you after individual threads, or sub-forums? ...
Cos if it's threads, (like an individual ROM thread for instance),
then I concur, this would be nice, but your original post seemed to indicate you were asking for sub-forum RSS feeds.
If it's that, then I assure you, what I said before works....
just go to your sub-forum, note down the number at the top,
then copy and paste the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=312
into your rss reader and change the number at the end to the [sub-forum] you want.
Hello there, i have worked a system to follow forum posts on Twitter, here are the currently supported threats:
XDA Twitter for Front Page forum: xda_developers
XDA Twitter for Kaiser General forum: xda_kaiser
Each one is updated every hour getting the last RSS post.
The Twitter idea is from robboy who gave me the password to work the system. The original post can be found here.
If you have any idea, suggestion, improvement for the twitter just let me know!
- Also let me know if you want another threat to follow -
That's a really good idea! Maybe you could do this for the ROM development threads, so we know when a new or updated ROM comes out.
aha, so you're the reason we couldn't register that twitter username

Sorry for the stupid question, i'm sure the forums had RSS links for each individual section of the forum but I can't seem to find it any more.
Could someone point me in the right direction or have they been removed?
anyone?
For some reason we don't have an icon for it.
Here's the URL for this forums' RSS feed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=263
Just replace the forumids=xxx with the forumId of the one you want to subscribe to.
Thanks
Dave
thanks, just what I was after
I've searched through the XDA archives but can't find any way to subscribe to an individual thread (not just forum ID) via RSS. Is this something that currently works?
Thanks.

Hi lio, thanks for that. I'm still trying to generate an RSS feed for within a thread though. So for instance I'm trying to get a feed for the following thread data:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=765
... and feedburner gives me the following two feeds:
Code:
xda-developers - Desire HD Android Development - RSS Feed: [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=765[/url]
xda-developers RSS Feed: [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/external.php?type=RSS2[/url]
... both of which are not generating from within the thread, they're just listing the different forums themselves. If you see what I mean?
These links no longer work
Is there some other link that we can use?

I know this is an old thread, but I'd settle for an RSS of my "Subscribed Threads & Forums" page. That alone would be enough for me...

Seems no viable solution exists...
I too would like this. I see XDA has their own feed reader app for the forum. Maybe they disabled RSS feeds so that we'd be forced to use their app so they can make $$? Kind of gay, RSS feeds allow me to check multiple forums from one list on one app.
Closest thing I found searching the forums is this: https://feeds.feedburner.com/xda-developers/ and maybe it can be modified to show the forum that you want?
