Re: RSS/atom for comments of a post
I created a patch to enable this functionality a while back, which should still work.

Re: RSS/atom for comments of a post
Neat, Andrew!
Note to the Management: is there any chance of that patch making it into the distro?
There really isn’t any reason why a feed should update every time there’s another comment. Switch that off and let us have comment subscription instead!
Please.

Re: RSS/atom for comments of a post
Alternatively, Andrew: could you turn the patch into a plugin?

Not for a while. There are other, more fundamental, feed issues that need solving first. We could use some help.

I don’t actually know for sure. Sencer or Alex, would this be possible?

Sure, you hook into the pretext-event and see if the url is such that you want to handle it with your plugin. If it is you do and exit; If it’s not something you want to handle, you don’t change any variables, and let textpattern run it’s course.

This is something I need to dig into. I’ll get on it.

Re: RSS/atom for comments of a post
So Sencer, I’d basically have to rewrite rss() and atom(), with my modifications, for use from within an admin plugin that hooks onto pretext(), yes?

Re: RSS/atom for comments of a post
I think that would be the most adequate appraoch, for now, yes.
(I am assuming you wrote _admin_-plugin by accident, because the plugin would only work on the public-side of things, no?).
