Help:Feeds
From Wikia Help
|
A web feed is a data format used for serving frequently updated content to users. A content provider publishes a feed link on their site. Users can subscribe to the feed using an aggregator program (also called a feed reader or a news reader) running on their own machines; other websites can also publish feed content on their own sites.
Wikia provides outgoing RSS and Atom feeds for some wiki pages, and it can publish incoming RSS feeds from other sites.
Which Wikia pages provide feeds?
RSS and Atom feeds are available for individual articles and for certain special pages. When you visit the page in question, the toolbox in the sidebar will contain "rss" or "atom" links which allow you to access the feed URL.
- Changes to any Wikia article: go to the article's history page
- Recent changes: go to Special:Recentchanges
- New pages: go to Special:Newpages
Examples:
- Rss feed of recent changes for the Central Wikia
- Atom feed of recent changes for the Central Wikia
- Rss feed of new pages for the Central Wikia
- Atom feed of new pages for the Central Wikia
How do I publish RSS content from another site?
The basic syntax is <rss> URL goes here </rss>. See Help:RSS2Wiki for more options.
