If you are unable to log in to the forums from various places, you have another option available - RSS feeds.
Where can I find the RSS feed? This allows you to view newly created threads in guest viewable forums without visiting the board.
The feeds are currently provided in two formats, RSS and RSS v2. The differences are as follows:
RSS 0.91 - This feed is based on a standard written by netscape and provides a link and the title of the thread.
http://www.pokiemagic.com/forums/external.php?type=rss
RSS 2.0 - This feed contains title, author, date and the contents of the first post of the thread.
http://www.pokiemagic.com/forums/external.php?type=rss2
To add this to MyYahoo click here (http://e.my.yahoo.com/config/promo_content?.module=ycontent&.url=http://www.pokiemagic.com/forums/external.php?type=rss2).
The forums to which this applies can also be limited to specific guest viewable forums by adding another parameter to the URL containing the forumids as follows:
http://www.pokiemagic.com/forums/external.php?type=rss2&forumids=123
If you would like the content to be generated for multiple forums you can separate the forumids by commas.
A lot of people use a simple rss client like that provided here: http://www.rssreader.com/download.htm
It allows you to view the live feeds from the forums in an environment similar to an email system. The better RSS feed to put into your client is:
http://www.pokiemagic.com/forums/external.php?type=rss2
as it displays much more detail.
If you have any questions about how this works, please post in the support forum or email rss@pokiemagic.com
