IMHO it's must be only enable in the phpBB admin... :?

My work-a-round is a "Advanced search" with keyword * and "Search for any terms":

Code: Select all

http://archive.worldofdragon.org/phpBB3/search.php?keywords=*&terms=any&st=7&ch=1000
So you will get the posts from the last 7 days...

"We" have recently canned RSS feeds in our projects due to noone consuming them any more. A few years ago we had lots of hits but since the appearance of smartphones and tablets which browse the web excellently on-the-go, the usage rates have dropped off dramatically.

Anyone have any stats for RSS usage globally?

This requires that you are on the web page anyway, so you can use the link "View unread posts" from the front page instead, right?

No, because you will get a list of post with 0 reply and not "new post since..."
