RSS doesn’t work!

(Or is it the software at my end not being able to handle feed:// links?)

But basically, the online aggregator that I use - http://www.start.com/myw3b at the moment - can’t do anything with it. I’d say this was either because:
* the problem is at my end - i.e. myw3b doesn’t have that bit (yet); or
* the problem is at your end - you have no feeds yet, or they’re empty, or bad link, or I dunno.

Anyway, can someone have a look and see if they can get them to work, so we can see who’s end the problem is at ?

(later)
Not worth a separate thread but is it on purpose that the Deep Thought Forums are ‘inside the mouths of geeks’? I’m guessing yes, I suppose, but not entirely sure.

The RSS feeds: the News and Blogs feed work fine in the news readers I’ve used (Safari RSS, NewsFire). I’m having trouble getting the other two to work properly. shock  (I love these smilies; nice job, arden! smile )

And yes, the title of this forum was intentional.

Of note, can you attach the whole site feed to the front page so that safari and firefox pick up that we have a feed.

Oh… and is it possible to make the forums jump to the post you just added, rather than the top of the page.

I’m looking into it, it’s one of many things I’ve noticed that the EE forum lacks in comparison to the Big 3 (IPB, phpBB and vB).

At some point I’ll probably start a list of feature requests and send it to pMachine.
