This nifty little utility will present a list of all of your forums RSS feeds on one page! Your users can then easily pick & choose which forums they want to subscribe to via RSS, Google, Yahoo, or Bloglines.
Ever go to a big site like CNN and view their page of RSS feeds that you can subscribe to? This is the same thing but for your vBulletin forums!
In addition to your users, the search engine spiders will love this!
We went out of our way to make sure that this CinVin vBulletin add-on was quick & easy to both install and modify!
DEMO #1: CinVin RSS Feeds (this is the 'stock' version)
