WC New Features
Article RSS Feeds, Site Index Sorting, Forum Activities
Wednesday, July 6, 2005 by T-Man | Discussion: Developer Journals
We just added a couple new features to WinCustomize that I thought I would share with you:
- Articles RSS Feed - Over on the Articles tab we have implemented an RSS feed listing the latest 20 articles. You can grab the feed directly from https://www.wincustomize.com/rss/articles.xml or click on the RSS/XML button on that page.
- Site Index Sorting - On the Sites page we have added new sorting options to allow you to sort by Create Date. A great way to look at the most recently create personal pages.
- Recent Forum Posts - On the Activities page we added a new section that shows the 5 most recents forum posts that you created.
- We added some additional error handling in the image upload process for personal images. Hopefully the improved error handling will prevent any future broken images for the personal icon or other personal images.

We still need a preview feature on the forums. It would be nice to see what your post looks like before it's posted.

Why am I getting nothing but a page of code when I click on the xml button? 
Is there something I'm missing here?

Yes, you need an RSS news reader. Either get a DX Widget, or use Blog Navigator or some such program.
