    Description:

    If you have a blog, you can specify the URL for the XML feed, and the most recent blog entry will show under your username in your posts and profiles.
    Works with Blogger, Movable Type, WordPress, MySpace blogs, and any RSS2 feeds including vBulletin Forum Feeds.

    This is where you specify the full URL of the RSS feed of your blog or website. You can find this by going to User CP > Edit Options

    Bout' time someone made a tutorial on this. It's really quite simple, but if people struggle with rep and iTrader then surely they will struggle with Blog Feeds. :D

    I don't use this feature myself but this is, simple and most importantly easy to understand, as there are an alarming ammount of people out there who are missing just a few braincells, this is foolproof.

    I'm sure this will be usefull to a lot of people.
