Tutorials vBulletin RSS News Feed
Quote:Options to show RSS link for specific forums or new posts of your board.
RSS (Really Simple Syndication), RSS is a standard for publishing regular updates to web-based content.

vBulletin already have has RSS feature built in, allow webmasters or member link to new-post-website on your website.

How to enable RSS feed: AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> External Data Provider, and enable Enable RSS Syndication. I think you should enable 3 options.

There're 3 kinds of RSS from external.php file.
-Javascript (simple), you don't need xml parse on server to use this.
[code:1]http://www.DOMAIN.COM/FORUM/external.php?type=js[/code:1]
-RSS, just show title, forum, poster and day.
[code:1]http://www.DOMAIN.COM/FORUM/external.php?type=rss[/code:1]
-RSS II - show complex data and post,forum,time and poster.
[code:1]http://www.DOMAIN.COM/FORUM/external.php?type=rss2[/code:1]

You can use RSS Feed for all forum or the forum what you want.
Example:want feed new posts forumid 10, use:

[code:1]http://www.DOMAIN.COM/FORUM/external.php?type=rss&forumids=10[/code:1]
forumid 2,6,10, use:

[code:1]http://www.DOMAIN.COM/FORUM/external.php?type=rss&forumids=2,6,10[/code:1]
With 3.6.x, showing is very easy, just ACP ---> RSS Feeds -----> Add New RSS Feed ----> add<---It's simple so I needn't to explain how.
Good luck......(^_^)
