Joost,

it is the thing I described (under Module Settings :: Page Settings, check "Allow syndicate?"). If you don't get the link in your container, add the following to the ascx file of the container:

Top (under the line that starts with "<%@ Control ..."):
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="ActionButton" Src="~/Admin/Containers/ActionButton.ascx" %>

And where you want the button:
<_dnn:ActionButton runat="server" id="dnnSyndicateButton" CommandName="SyndicateModule.Action" DisplayIcon="True" DisplayLink="false" /_>
(replace <_ by < and _> by > resp.)

or talk to your skinner to do it.

Best wishes
Michael

Thanks! But still one question:)!

I now have an RSS-button within my Form and List module, and I can subscribe to it.
However, it seems to have no content.
I get no messages when I add a new item to the List.

I've tried an RSSFeed on another module as well, a simple HTML module, and this gives me at least one notification in the RSS-Feed. (no updates are given hower, as well).

I've googled for an answer myself as well, and I've seen posts about enabling the Search Indexer task in the Scheduler. I don't have that name exactly in my list of scheduling tasks, but I reckon this must be the Search Engine Scheduler that I have enabled indeed.

Could you help me again?!

(The RSS-button didn't show up as I was using an empty container. So your suggestion was spot on correctly :) )

Joost,

I don't know too much about the internal mechanisms for the RSS feeds, but just a shot in the dark: Do you have activated the option to exclude the module from global search (this is somewhere in the F&L settings)? I think that RSS as implemented in DNN relies on the search indexer, and if you have excluded the module, the feed would be empty.

Let me know if this helps.

Best wishes
Michael

It helps...., but still, another question :).

When I click the RSS-button displayed at my F&L in Chrome, I see an XML-tree appear in a new window, containing XML.
This XML-tree was almost empty before, but now I have unchecked the 'exclude form search'property, like you mentioned, I see an AML-tree containing all the items I've added in the List.

However, there's still no update of the news, when I add another item to it.
If you could help me out on this?! Thank you!

The built-in RSS works off the DNN Search functionality.  It generates the RSS from the search content.  Depending how the event is setup in the scheduler, your search items may get refreshed every 30 minutes or so.  Like Michael said, you are better off using a News module for your news which has it's own RSS functionality.  You can use the modules he suggested, or our DigArticle module also has a configurable RSS feed.  The RSS feed from DigArticle will also include things like image enclosures   I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to move the F&L data over to a proper news module.

Thanks
Mike
