Hi Steve,

I've been meaning to sort out the RSS on my Orchard site too.

1) If you mean the rss icon in the browser bar you can add that using a meta
tag in your HTML. The easiest way to add it is probably just in your theme
template, but there may be a module for it.
<link href="/rss?containerid=162" rel="alternate" title="Richard's Projects
(RSS)" type="application/rss+xml" />

2) I think the container id is the content id of the blog it is displaying
content for

To make the rss link nicer I've created a URL rewrite on my server:
http://www.nogginbox.co.uk/rss
