EDIT:  Shows the FIRST post in the Topic.  Each release will need to be it's own topic, not all contained w/in 1 thread?  :-\

I think arkayn is correct, but you might have to play with it just to test it out!

This is what i have so far;

You have 4 forums, all of them have an rss feed. Each of them have a number.

Linux
Windows
Discussion Forum
Optimized Applications Release News

There forum numbers seem to be like this;

Linux - 3
Windows - 12
Discussion Forum - 1
Optimized Applications Release News - 15

So having read the SMF explanation message, i am adding the params for "XML feed", and "rss2" and "recent posts" and "Limit to 15 most recent posts". This gives me the following URL for each forum to get the rss feed from that forum;

Linux - http://lunatics.kwsn.net/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss2;sa=recent;limit=15;board=3

Windows - http://lunatics.kwsn.net/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss2;sa=recent;limit=15;board=12

Discussion Forum - http://lunatics.kwsn.net/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss2;sa=recent;limit=15;board=1

Optimized Applications Release News - http://lunatics.kwsn.net/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss2;sa=recent;limit=15;board=15

Using those url's, i can get and read the rss news from the original 3 forums, they work fine. But i cannot see any news items on forum 15, the new "Optimized Applications Release News " forum?

You might have to do what arkayn suggested and split the forum posts into individual news items. But i would test it first by posting a few test forum posts to see if they appear in the new forum, you can delete them later.

I can't post messages in the new forum so i can't test it. But maybe that is why i can't see the rss news items for that forum also.

You will have to play with it and test the url's i have given you.

I know why.  Will take some more reorganization, but I know "what" & how to fix this.

Gecko,
You done a wonderful job, its working great with that url! :D, well done!

You just need to post news items as new messages when you have a new release. I suppose tomorrow you can try add the rss icon to the front page and the extra bit of code for the browser auto detect if you like!

Looks good!

John.
