for adding rssfeed links you need to install rssfeedlinks.php

and add to a local config file:

## add rss feedlinks to header
$EnablePageFeed = 1;
@include_once("$FarmD/cookbook/rssfeedlinks.php");

plus you need to enable pmwiki to deliver feeds:

# add rss feed supply capability
if ($action == 'rss' || $action == 'atom') {
     @include_once("$FarmD/scripts/feeds.php"); }

any posting in simple forum will be reflected in RecentChanges as
well. But there is no way to know what has been read.
