Ken et al, is it possible/desirable to enable RSS feeds for the boards? Would be helpful to those of us who are traveling or use multiple boards to consolidate PMs and new posts in one place like an RSS reader.

Thanks,
Rukus

I've enabled RSS feeds. The feed is here:
(Dead link: http://www.blackjackinfo.com/bb/external.php)

Personal use is allowed, but republishing anywhere is not.
I'll keep an eye on the impact on the server, but I don't expect this will be a problem.

If you want to specify a particular list of forums, do it this way:
(Dead link: http://www.blackjackinfo.com/bb/external.php?forumids=5,7)

You can find the forum numbers by hovering over the forum name and noting the "f=?" parameter value.

Let me know if you find it useful.

awesome, worked like a charm. this is indeed just for personal use, especially when browsing while on the road on a mobile device. now if only PMs were RSS-able! i doubt this will create much more traffic for the server

Thanks for taking the time

I want to vote against being allowed to embed videos. A link works just as well and doesn't make the load time go through the roof. This is especially relevant if you've already seen the video and are just visiting the thread to see the replies.

No to embedded videos.
