Question

Hi Folks,

It is my understanding that TWiki is supposed to send an RSS update whenever a page is updated.

Right now, I only get an RSS update (using Vienna Reader and others) when a new topic is created.

Am I missing some configuration on how RSS is set up?

I want my people to receive an RSS update when a topic is modified, not just created.

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

The RSS feed should list the last 10 modifications/creations. Could it be possible that your reader sees update notifications as duplicates and is ignoring them? If you view the WebRss topic, do the updates show there?

You could tweak the RSS feed to include the version number in the URL, that way you get a unique URL each time. For example, append a #foo5 or a ?foo=5 to the URL of each topic in the feed.
