RSS Feed Internals

Each web has a WebRss topic which includes part of this WebRssBase topic. This topic is the base for the RSS feed and generates an RSS 1.0 feed for TWiki:Codev/TWikiSyndication.

The WebRss topic in each web contains the following text:


<channel rdf:about="%SCRIPTURL{"view"}%/%INCLUDINGWEB%">
  <title>%WIKITOOLNAME%'s <nop>%INCLUDINGWEB% web</title>
  <link>%SCRIPTURL{"view"}%/%INCLUDINGWEB%</link>
  <description>(the description of the web). TWiki is a Web-Based Collaboration Platform for the Enterprise.</description>
%INCLUDE{"TWiki.WebRssBase"}% <!--
   * Set SKIN = rss
-->
