BigStar Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Until a few days ago, the feed https://forum.thaivisa.com/rss/ https://aseannow.com/rss/ hit the major forums and yielded a list from them all. Now, the downgrade: there are just individual feeds from the News forums only. Each one would have to be subscribed to. Very annoying change and much less useful. Not gonna subscribed to a couple of news forums only. How about upgrade to what you had before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of feed to you exactly looking for and I can create a feed for you, Which content/subforums do you want included in your rss? Cheers Just the usual type of feed, though topic titles w/ no content would be fine. My reader is set to display only titles. I scan the updated list of maybe 70 and click on any of interest to open in a new tab in my browser. That is, I don't use the reader to read any content. This is the only practicable FAST way I know of to get a comprehensive view of pretty much all the news. I click on a lot of links in the feed I'd never see otherwise. For example, a selection: I don't know which forums were included in the feed before the downgrade. However, these would probably do for just me: Thailand News Pattaya Pattaya News Bangkok Health and Medicine IT and Computers Thai Visas etc Farang Pub General Thanks!

Gaccha Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I second this. The only way I look at AseanNow is through the general feed. And now it's gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaccha Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 @george Please don't forget to bring back/recreate this feed. My interaction with this forum is far lower quality without it. That feed gives instant updates on every page that I can drop in on. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old code worked fine, just a matter of dropping it back in. Appears to be a misguided marketing decision they're too proud to reverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My engagement with the site is down 90%, although I imagine most people don't arrive via the RSS feed, so it's a very low priority for them.

They are clearly kind of the worst if it comes to technical stuff, I mean just think back a while when the site was down for days, to do a simple migration lol, that should be with no downtime at all, max 5-10 minutes, for a DNS change with TTL on 5 minutes.

For the moment it’s difficult as this requires an upgrade plus a special plugin to the forum software. Within a few weeks it will be possible to enable RSS feeds again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
