Hello,

I simpy want to create multiple own rss feeds, and I want to decide which node-types will be used in this feed. And I want to create a link to this rssfeed on these pages. I've searched, but I can't find a module with these specifications. Could anybody give me some tips or a link with an example or tutorial maybe?

I've found this page, for writing my own rss module:
http://www.drupalcoder.com/story/17-creating-your-own-rss-feeds-with-dru...
But my guts is telling me someone already had written such module?

Thanks for you time and help:)

Well, there's Views RSS, if that would suit your purposes - see http://drupal.org/node/83597

Yes, wonderfull! The rss feeds works fine! But I have one problem left, I want the RSS icon on some pages. I followed the steps in the tutorial, but i don't see the RSS icon on my news page. I will describe the steps I followed:

1) I have created a new rss view, with a feed display. This works fine!
2) I have created a page display "news" to this rss view, and I have set the path to: news
3) I have edited the feed display, and changed the attach value to the new page display "news".

This should do the tric, but there is no rss-icon on my news page! And correct me if I'm wrong, but I have to add a seperate page display for every page where I want the rss icon?

check your theme's page.tpl.php; there should be a section like this -

        <?php if ($feed_icons): ?>
          <div class="feed-icons"><?php print $feed_icons; ?></div>
        <?php endif; ?>

which is the thingumabob that does the job.

Hi Pete,

This section is already in my page.tpl.php. So this is not the problem.
In the view you can follow the page link, and when I click on this link, it opens the news page. So the connection between the view en the page is correct I suppose?

Yesternight I was trying and searching all kind of things, and suddenly I realised that my news page already had another view, the "news" view. At first i thought that this was the problem, because I don't now for sure if a page can have multiple views? I've changed the page of the "feed" view to a new test page. Unfortunately this was no solution, there was no rss icon on my test page.

Too bad, my problem stil excist.

By the way, Thanks for helping me!:)
