So ok.... with that solution, I have just to pay attention to not disclose this link to people who are not member of the private forums...

I think that might not work, since it uses Guest user permissions to try and view the info (in which case, it won't load the forum)

Re: RSS for private forum

Does anyone know how to do this?  We're trying to enable authentication so private forums can have RSS.

Thanks
