    OK, I must be missing something really simple, but when I navigate to this page (http://www.andertalk.com/rss2.php) I don't get the little RSS feed thingy in my browser so I can subscribe to the feed.

    What did I miss?

    Thanks, BTW, this looks great!

    One point is that the rss2.php file is working that's why u r getting output without the first 4/5 lines as warning or error. I am using this in my forum for phpbbrc4 to phpbb3 gold. Which version of phpbb3 are you using ? plz let me know. i may help you to solve this. I hvave given many times to make it perfect so that it can also help others.

    I'm using phpbb3.0.0 Gold

  7. @andertoons,Volca

    I am using my rss2.php file in phpbbrc4 and then I convert my forum to phpbb3 gold and it's still working. The main concept of rss2.php file is collect posts and give output as xml format. u can check my one which is working fine http://forum.amaderprojukti.com/aprss2main.php

    Andertoons link is showing error of session related and Volca's one is totally messed up.

    Ok I have some tips which may work for you that I have done internally in my forum.

    Pls edit two files.

    go to include folder and find the file named functions.php and go to line numbber or close to line number 3330 or find this line

    [inlucde/functions.php]

    'L_ONLINE_EXPLAIN' => $l_online_time,

    now add a new line after the above line

    'U_RSS2' => append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}rss2.$phpEx"),

    and save/upload it again to your forum include folder

    Now check. :D

    Another tips is if u want to use this link any where in your template files like overall_footer.html located in styles/prosilver/template

    RSS2

    Please don't forget to give me feedback. If it doesn't work then I have to think again why this is not working :( .

    The problem with the download file is the initial /* */ comment block is outside the <?php declaration.

  9. @Garry
    Thank you. Actually it's not possible to upload the php file in wordpress that's why I uploaded the doc file but add some comments in it in worng place. :(
    I am sorry for that but my mod is ok if some one exclude the /**/ block. I am updating the file now.
    Thank you. I was also confused why this is not working as it;s working fine in my forum. D
