Group combined "Activity" RSS Feed

It would be so helpful to have an RSS feed for the combined activity (library, messages, forum, blogs) in individual groups.


Though the portal page gives a single-line snapshot of activity across all the connections and groups, it is hard to keep track of what is happening in a particular group, especially if the group is active across all of its four components (library, messages, forum, blogs).

Or it could just be an RSS feed from the "Info" page that lists all the activity going on.

I've probably got the wrong end of this stick, but... isn't this (e.g.) what you want?

YES! and thank you, I have no idea why I didn't notice before that the info page does have an RSS feed!

Figured this out -> I was not browsing with Firefox and was using the Iron browser that doesn't show the RSS links. Sorry about the dud request!

Wait - I just realized that the blog posts aren't turning up in this combined feed (though they turn up on the activity/info page) - could you please include that as well?

My bad. Done - it'll only show the articles being created, not comments (for now...)

Thanks, that is really helpful!!

This is a great feature. May I place a vote to log the addition of a 'note' to an article, showing it on the info page and the RSS feed. For example. "dfkotz annotated TITLE" much like "dfkotz posted TITLE"

+ 1

Notes and comments turn up on individual activity pages - they would be even more helpful in a group info/activity page.

Any chance that this could be [UNDER REVIEW]?


This feature would be a huge help.
