Is there any way to get an RSS feed of the for sale forum? I wish all forums were in the main RSS feed.

According to the page source, the URL for the "for sale forum" RSS feed is:

http://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=27

But when I try it, it always comes up empty. Maybe due to the restrictions of the "for sale" forum? For other forum areas this works fine.

It look like it was turned off on August 22nd, 2007. That's too bad. Google reader is a great way to read these forums, and I'd love to have the FS section included.

Kirk, are you out there? Comments?

The sub-forums under the Community section were made "private" to avoid various issues. That means one has to first be a registered member, and then log in to read the content.

I'm not sure what the issues were, but I guess they were serious enough that RSS for these sections are not coming back. Thanks for the info.
