Lookin' fo' RSS help

[Glarryg]

Greeting, all. I realize it's been quite a while since I last visited here, and I hope this post finds you well.

My comic has, in a way and for the time being, ended. However, for now I'm updating my site sporadically, and because of that I'd like to be able to give notification to my readers as to when updates occur. Folks have suggested that I do an RSS feed, but I haven't the foggiest idea how they work or who I need to contact to start one. So far, my web searches have been fruitless, and often leave me more confused about the topic than I was before I started looking. Would anybody be able to point me in a proper direction to get this RSS thing started? Any resources you could recommend would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Glarryg

I think this should have been posted in the help forums... but, hell, no biggie. It's spam-zombie apocalypse in Gen Town, anyway.

I'm afraid that i can't really help here. The only times i used an RSS was via automated hosts.

I'll push it to Help forum, it's more likely to get answer there.

Thanks. I wasn't sure if it belonged in Help; I figured that was more for CG-only issues, and this is sort of extraneous. But I did wonder what you said, McD.

I am also curious in this matter.

This seems to answer my question:

... but I have another: there is a file called "rss.xml" in my directory, which could apparently be used to provide an RSS feed (as I understand it), but it's in the "public_html" folder, which I know is supposed to be off-limits. Should I create a different file to RSS, or could I make an "rss.xml" file and put it into the "workspace" folder (and have it replace the original when Auto-Keen updates), like the rest?
