Atom Feeds now available

Post by standby4action »

I wrote to Alan asking if he could enable feeds and the great guy has.

The URL is http://comicsuk.co.uk/Forum/feed.php which you can copy and use in a Feed Reader (I use FeedDemon), or in Google Reader, or even in most modern browsers as Live Bookmarks...and I recently moved to Outlook 2010 at work and that allows RSS feeds too. Whether an Atom Feed will work in the latter - not sure.

What are feeds?

In the old days, you had to visit a site every time you wanted to see if it updated. Now if it has feeds, you only need open one of the above choices and it will push a notification to you. Saves so much time!

Want to know more....http://support.google.com/feedburner/bi ... swer=79408

Oh, and I should say, you don't get the full view of the Forum, - i.e. little or no pictures, but if a topic gets your interest, click on it to go to the forum

No reinstall needed. Just change your bookmark, it's case sensitive and should be a small f in forum. So, http://comicsuk.co.uk/forum/feed.php

Shows up as code in the browser.

What he said :D

This problem occurred after I changed the host of Comics UK a couple of months ago. Everything went fine except for this case-sensitivity issue on folder names within the website.
