Unforums RSS Filter

[thebruce]

thanks for this! I'm sure it'll be helpful to many people

I personally have my reader refreshing the overall forum posts every 5 minutes. Almost all of the time it catches every post, but sometimes there are > 15 posts in 5 minutes. I keep the last post in my reader for threads I'm tracking so I can open the thread from there and read if I think I missed something.

So I can pretty vouch that if you've got an RSS showing only [RING] posts, a 5 minute refresh shoud be sufficient to catch everything

And if/when Ring gets its own forum group, it'll already work for any posts just in that group. So great job

Does your script keep its own RSS history and refresh itself consistently? Or does it call the full forum RSS feed and filter it every time someone queries yours?

It's a straight scrape of the Unforums RSS, no caching. If every single user starts subscribing to it I guess I'll have to reconsider.

Thanks for this tool!

It seems this only filters on text within []. So, e.g., http://www.mobilefono.com/unrss/10/trailhead gives you the trailhead of several ARG's.

Filtering on other words on the subject doesn't seem to work.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks!
