   I apologize if this has already been requested but how did/do you add the rss feed button to your forum not the individual topics?

   I am testing bbpress to use as a knowledge centre at our office and need to find a easy way to subscribe to the forums section including all the subtopics or the latest discussions so new posts/replys or when new topics are created I will be notified and have the option to sign up to a rss feed?

   As currently I can select a forum and then a topic and add as a favorite which works great, I get emails when this topic changes and I can add as a rss feed to say internet explorer. BUT I have to individually do this to each topic that I am interested in.

   When a new topic is created I am not aware that this has happened (I am the key master) unless I find it in the latest dsicussions..

   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

   Cheers, Dan.

   That's done with custom code I wrote.
   

   <div class=bottombar>
   <?php if (function_exists('bb_get_posts_rss_link')) { ?>
   	<span class=floatleft>
   	<a  href="<?php echo bb_get_posts_rss_link(); ?>"><span class="rss">RSS</span> posts</a>
   	<a  href="<?php echo bb_get_topics_rss_link(); ?>"><span class="rss">RSS</span> topics</a>
   	<?php _e('for latest discussions'); ?></span>
   <?php } else { ?>
   	<a class=floatleft href="<?php echo get_recent_rss_link(); ?>"><span class="rss">RSS</span> <?php _e('feed for latest discussions'); ?></a>
   	<?php } ?>
   </div>

   Thank you for the code,

   I am not sure what to do with this code, what page to modify in my theme or how to create a new one..?

   I will do some more searching to see what I can find as I really do not know how to work with code, all I do is trial and error at the moment. If you have any suggestions please advise.

   Cheers, Dan.
