Build 6: Custom RSS exporting and cool follow pods
Last week mytrade released build 6. Here are the highlights:
Custom RSS export of your profile feeds
We’ve added a nifty little orange RSS button to the profile page so that you can quickly grab the feeds that are important to you. Just get the page setup with the types of results you want and then click the RSS button for the feed URL to put into any reader.
Want to follow Jonathan Lawson’s posts in your Google Reader? Simply go to https://www.mytrade.com/skipros1 then click on the orange RSS button on the right and paste the feed result into your reader. (We chose Jonathan because he’s a mytrade staff favorite!)
Want a feed for everyone that you follow on mytrade? Simply login, click the “everyone I follow” tab and then hit the orange button again….presto!
What about a feed for all of the posts tagged QQQQ in the entire mytrade system? You guessed it: Click “everyone on mytrade” tab, put QQQQ into the search box and submit, then hit that magic little RSS button for your feed.
Two cool new pods for your dashboard:
- All-Stars Pod: Under the customize this page area of the dashboard, go to the All Stars section and now you’ll see a nifty pod that displays the mytrade posts of all of the mytrade all-stars automatically. Cool.
- Everyone I follow Pod: Under the Feeds and Customize section, we’ve added the Everyone I Follow pod, which automatically pulls in all of the posts from mytrade members that you are following for easy tracking right from your dashboard
hint: You can always make your own custom pods by using the RSS export instructions above and then using the feed URL in a generic RSS FEED pod ;)
Auto-refresh option for your profile page feeds. Ya…that shoulda been in build 1 :)
