Comments RSS

 Is this what we were loooking for?

http://drupal.org/project/commentrss

 

This module adds comment RSS serving capabilties to Drupal, which is
suitable for some tracking of comments for your users. The module adds
feeds for the following points:

  • complete site feed at /crss
  • per vocabulary feeds at eg. /crss/vocab/13
  • per term feeds at eg. /crss/term/14
  • per node feeds at eg. /crss/node/12
  • per node type feeds at eg. /crss/nodetype/story

This module might also be handy as an alternative to subscriptions, since
your users don't need to provide their email addresses, but still can follow
discussion on forums and other nodes. Due to the limited capabilities of RSS,
threading and such is not preserved, the comments are listed in reversed
time order.

Note that this module can optionaly work with vocabulary_list.module in
order to print channel links in vocabulary listing feeds, since this type
of service is not provided by Drupal core. You don't need to install
vocabulary_list.module to use commentrss though.

Per node type listing pages are not available in Drupal in any known
custom module, so there are no direct channel links printed in that case.

Good Find

Hi Alex,

That's a good find. I set it up and you can access the comments feed now in the top right corner, next to the "RSS Feed". It doesn't integrate as seamlessly as I would have liked, but it works pretty well for generating a feed for the entire site. You can create feeds for individual nodes, but it doesn't integrate into the template from what I can see, so you would need to manually create the link for each node.

If you do want to follow the comments just for specific nodes you can do so manually by following these directions from the read me file:

CRSS - Works nicely

Thanks Bill!

It's working nicely! I've added the CRSS to my Akregator now it will be easier to keep track of comments.
