About

mcRSS is an ingame RSS reader for bukkit. It allows you to view or show individual topics that are in the RSS feed. There are various uses for this plugin:

  • You can use it to view your favorite RSS feeds ingame
  • You can use it to show or view new topics on your forum

mcRSS was originally designed to work for Drupal Taxonomy. But is now further developed to work for other feeds aswell.

FAQ's

Yes, in the config file you can add / remove any RSS Feeds

How many feeds can I add?

mcRSS is limited to 128 RSS feeds to prevent crashes

Does this work on normal HTML pages?

No, mcRSS uses RSS XML files to gather the data

How to add RSS feeds to my Drupal forum?

To add RSS feeds to Drupal, you have to install the module Taxomony. This will create a little RSS icon at each page. You can right click on it and select "Copy link url" and paste it into the config file.
