RSS comment feeds
Unix Gal (Lisa) makes the case for having comment feeds for a site. I’m not always interested in the comments for every post on that site, and realize that some of my readers might not be as well. What I want is RSS comment feeds on a per post basis - so I can subscribe to the RSS feeds for the comments of the posts that I’ve commented on and/or care about. So, after a little bit of work, I’ve implemented it. It wasn’t all that difficult in b2, with some knowledge of PHP and RSS, but I did have to actually write some SQL (my first actual SQL to run on MySQL). If anyone is interested in me making the source public, let me know.
Now, for what I really want - when you submit a comment, it auto-subscribes you to the comment feed for that post. Anyone got a cool tip or trick for how to do this?
I was kind of thinking about doing comment feeds by categories, but that seemed like a lotta work. I’ve seen sites (Phil Ringnalda) that do XML feeds per post.
