Hi,

is there any way to subscribe to an RSS feed broadcasting new forum posts?

Thanks!
Dirk

I think you can but I'm not sure how to enable it yet. I'll read more about
it and post again later.

An RSS feed should now be available. You may subscribe using these
URLs for RSS versions 0.91, 1.0, and 2.0.

I would start with rss2 and if your reader doesn't support that drop
back to an earlier version.

Something I noticed on this is that you only receive an RSS update
when a new thread is created, not when replies are added to an existing thread.

Adding lastpost='true' might fix this though I see other users complaining
that it doesn't work like people expect.

That links is working excellent here! I use Bloglines Beta for online RSS reading and Circular Labs Forum comes up in the 3-pane display with subject lines in upper window and when selecting a subject line its post's content is displayed in the lower window. I can recommend Bloglines Beta if you appreciate a a three-linked-window layout like the FirstClass Bulletin Board, Apple's Mail application, MS's Office Outlook etc.
