    you won't believe how hard i had to research for this information.

    i found a post about external.php but didn't know if i could get feeds for specific forum sections, so i then had to run this query - http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=link:http://forums.digitalpoint.com/external.php ...which fortunately took me to this thread.

    is this information purposely made difficult to find so as to prevent spammers from stealing your content? that's the only reason i can think of for not making it clear with a little xml button on each forum page

    Hard to find ? Nah...!

    Just view the source of DP's Forum homepage, and you'll find this in the head section :

    
<link type="application/rss+xml" title="Digital Point Forums RSS Feed"
   rel="alternate" href="external.php?type=RSS2" />
    HTML:
    PS: you just bumped a 3.25 year old thread.

    good point about the source code - i didn't think of that.

    about the thread age tho - is it a problem?
