    I made rss feeds, now I can't do it anymore.




    I have two Etsy sites as RSS feeds in my Favorites Bar, so in the blink of an eye I can see when they have new items up.

    One I made quite a long time ago, an other one I made 4 or 5 days ago. They both work perfectly.

    Now, I want to make some more and I CAN NOT for the life of me do it anymore. I do have to admit that I searched for the right paths to get them right, but now, I can't get it anymore. Is anyone able to tell me how to make a saved favorite site into an RSS feed (because that's how I did it, I had a site up in my favorites bar, then I made it into an rss feed)

    Thank you so much in advance.

    Yes, they work. The IE route was just a tad different from the screen shots, but I found it. Then, I forgot to check "add to favorites bar'. That totally threw me off, because the feeds showed up in my feeds folder, but nowhere on the toolbar, of course. SO I kept trying to 'subscribe to this feed' but that didn't work (because I was already subscribed but didn't see it anywhere), and it took me a while (a LOT longer than I dare to admit) be4 I realized I forgot to check that 'fave bar' check.

    And an other problem I had (totally my laptop's fault :P) was that the IE toolbar didn't show the rss feed logo.

    All in all it was a journey but I like stuff like this. Just about enough 'problem' to keep my brain from falling apart but not too much so I won't kill anyone. Yet..
