| 1 | RSS Feeds can be used to get notification from activity taking place on an XWiki instance. | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | == Available Feeds == | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | Several RSS feeds are provided by default and it is possible to create new ones easily when required. The default wiki provides a page that lists all the feeds available in your wiki. To navigate to it go directly to the Main.RssFeeds page: | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | {{image reference="rssfeeds.png"/}} | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | You can also click on the RSS icon at the bottom of the homepage: | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | {{image reference="rsshomepage.PNG"/}} | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | Note: this feature is not present in latest versions due to introduction of Activity Stream. It will be back very soon. | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | Your wiki comes with the following already made RSS feeds: | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | * Feed for all modified pages. | ||
| 18 | * Feed for all Blog posts. This is available if your wiki has the [[Blog application>>extensions:Extension.Blog Application]] installed. | ||
| 19 | * Feeds for Search results. This is available if your wiki has the [[Search application>>extensions:Extension.Search Application]] installed. | ||
| 20 | * Feeds on Tags. This is available if your wiki has the [[Tag application>>extensions:Extension.Tag Application]] installed. | ||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | You can easily choose to start receiving information from the Blog and modified pages feeds by using your browser's RSS notification button. For example on Firefox: | ||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | {{image reference="rss.png"/}} | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | == Customized RSS Feeds == | ||
| 27 | |||
| 28 | Even more so, it's easy to create new RSS feeds to fit a specific need. | ||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | * The [[Watchlist Feature>>extensions:Extension.Watchlist Application]] allows you to get a RSS feed of all the modifications to the pages in your Watchlist. | ||
| 31 | * You can also easily create your own page that outputs RSS (Atom, RDF, etc). Edit the ##Main.WebRss## page in your wiki to see how it's implemented and do the same in your own page. | ||
| 32 | * You can also modify the existing ##Main.WebRss## page if you wish to customize the default RSS content produced. |
