On my main page I have a section for news and the like, previously filled with RSS feeds from eADev that didn't pretain to my server, so I removed them. Let's say I want to take new topics from my forums (Things like announcements, patch notes, maintenance times, etc) and put them there as a link, that automatically updates itself, how do I do that?

Click RSS Feeds under Content Discovery in ACP

Click Create New button, then select "Topics" and give it a name.

You'll then find the link under the orange RSS button at the bottom of all your forum pages

Use that link as the RSS Feed URL.

You update the rss feed url, probably found in a settings file in the theme directory somewhere.

Yes, I know about that. But I don't know how to use IPB to make the RSS feeds and their links to put into the rss settings file in FluxCP.

This was exactly what I needed. It turns out this was exactly what I was doing, but because the RSS link showed the content but no graphics otherwise, I was unsure. I tested it on my website, and I'm quite satisfied. FluxCP is seriously one powerful thing.

Now if I could just figure out how to get the pvp rankings to show up.
