A suggestion for this forum is to increase the default limit on RSS feeds

(1/1)

ALLIGATOR:
This forum has an RSS feed, and maybe someone is even using it! (Me! 😊) (the RSS link is in the footer of the page)
But there are some inconveniences with the way RSS works on this engine by default - namely it only gives you the 5 most recent posts... This is very little, it can lead to loss of some posts, of course it all depends on the frequency of polling and the frequency of posting new posts, but 5 is very little anyway....

So, after a bit of googling - I found how to increase the default value - you need to add an additional parameter ;limit=255 to the URL and then 255 latest posts will be given.

Each RSS user can personally correct the link, but I think it will be useful to change it in the page template to some higher value.... at least 30... for example...

Once again:
default link:
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss
new link:
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss;limit=30
or
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss;limit=255
