Not sure what you are talking about - there is a feed reader built
right into 2.x versions.
Care to tell me where it is, or should I just keep floundering around?
The help file isn't -- it defines the term and stops there.
Search for "feed" instead of "RSS". And just as a note: You could have
found this by yourself already if you had followed the link in the
definition of the term which you obviously found.
HTH
I did find this definition, which doesn't tell me how to do anything useful:
"feed -- A frequently updated source of references to web pages, usually
blog articles or news. Technically it is an XML document available
through a public well-known URL, comprising of several items inside,
each one containing some metadata (possibly including a summary) and an
URL to the full blog or news article. The XML document is regenerated at
fixed intervals, or whenever a new article is published to the website.
Web applications can subscribe to the URL serving the feed and present
the new articles as they are updated in the underlying XML document.
There are specific XML formats for feeds, most common of which are RSS
and Atom."
I already know what RSS feeds are. I don't need that. I need to know how
to DO it in SM 2.0.6. There isn't the slightest inkling in either help
topic that SM can handle RSS feeds. There are no links at all to any
how-to topics.
Now that you told me to search under "feed," which I thought I had
already exhausted, I found some helpful procedural topics -- Thank you.
But the help file is just completely useless as far as linking from
keywords to actual help. This has happened over and over to me -- I
search on a term and get a definition, but no link to anything useful.
