Here is a new feature I've been wishing for ever since I got started with selling through smugmug. I've been out of touch with developments at smugmug and it just started to happen.

Thanks!

Andy, I looked at this page but I do not see the usual RSS logo to get the feed from. I would imagine I'm looking for the wrong thing but can you educate me on how to do this? Thanks.

"smugblog: release notes uses WordPress (http://wordpress.org/), just like Batman would if he blogged. Entries (RSS) (feed:http://blogs.smugmug.com/release-notes/feed/) and Comments (RSS) (feed:http://blogs.smugmug.com/release-notes/comments/feed/). "


I'll have to try this from home, I suspect my employer is blocking the RSS feed site as it says that
The page cannot be displayed

when I click on the Entries or Comments links.

Nope, still doesn't open either site. WordPress opens but I have no idea what to do with it.

You need a feed reader - Safari on Mac, not sure if you have win or mac

Win and I use RSSReader. Normally on a page (lets say a Smugmug page for example) one just clicks on the RSS logo like this

http://MusicMan.smugmug.com/photos/88857491-M.jpg

Then the feed is displayed and you paste it into RSS Reader.

What is supposed to take place here?

copy the link and paste it to your RSS reader? I don't really know, sorry, I use Safari to read the feeds. Maybe one of the other guys knows... hang in there

I'm having trouble as well. Running under FF using Wizz RSS. Tried to validate the feed and it came back with some errors - said it should run but could have problems.

Also the feed links are not displaying with symbols like you are showing. Just text.

Oh yeah - I don't have a clue about what I'm doing :D

Edit: I'm learning

Went to http://www.dgrin.com/faq.php?faq=vb_board_usage#faq_vb_threadedmode bottom of page and copied the RSS 2.0 url into Wizz (created a channel) and it worked.

Well you cannot follow the directions on this page

http://www.smugmug.com/help/rss-atom-feeds

to subscribe to http://blogs.smugmug.com/release-notes/ because there isn't a RSS and ATOM logos at the bottom of this page.

Here is the subscription process for RSS Reader:
Look for this http://www.rssreader.com/images/xml.gif or http://www.rssreader.com/images/rss.gif RSS feed pictograms in news pages of websites, for example Yahoo! news (http://news.yahoo.com/rss) or BBC news (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/help/3223484.stm?rss=http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/front_page/rss091.xml).
Place the mouse arrow on one of the above pictograms (in the website you found) and click the right mouse button, then choose "Copy Shortcut".
Start RssReader and go to add(+) channel/feed and then paste (click right mouse button) the url and press ok. Add as many feeds to this free RSS reader as you want and use it as free news aggregator.

Finally!! Success!!

Here is what you need to do, click on Add in RssReader. When you get the add window enter this address:

http://musicman.smugmug.com/photos/89052486-L.jpg

Then click Next and you'll be all set.

You cannot add the blog adress directly because there is something in it's XML code that it doesn't like.
