I'll see what I can do. Do you know the specs for the XML?

You can have a look at this :

You can easily add pictures in the feed like in this example I set up and tried successfully here : http://www.w3schools.com/xml/tryrss.asp?filename=rss_ex_image :

[code]

Hello,

I finally added this function on Mecabricks. There is now a button on the New Parts page that redirects to this address: http://www.mecabricks.com/parts/rss

Let me know if it is what you wanted.

Perfect ! The pictures quality is really stunning, thanks for that ! No more need to spam the f5 button on the "new parts" page now 😄

The new parts RSS feed is a welcome addition, especially because of the higher resolution previews. So far, I oftentimes I had to open the parts in the Workshop or search them on Brickset to see what they look like. Thanks for this.

For some reason the content isn't showing up in Chrome RSS reader extensions (I tried "Inoreader" and "RSS Feed Reader).

Weird, it is perfect in feedly

Yep, Feedly works. Thanks.

Images are the same as for the icons. They are just not scaled down in the feed 😃
I tried Feedly and a couple of others and it was working. Not too sure but I am not a specialist of rss xml and it seems to be a bit messy as a format.

It doesn't work for me with the built-in Firefox RSS feed reader (also called "Live Bookmarks"). When I click on the RSS feed link, Firefox just shows an empty list, then when I actually subscribe to it and view it there, it says that the Live Bookmark failed to load. I don't know too much about the RSS format, but I put it into the Feed Validator and got these results:

https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmecabricks.com%2Fparts%2Frss

Not sure what's going to fix it, but what the validator says might be the issue:

• Feeds should not be served with the "text/html" media type
  This is regarding the mime type returned with the http request.

• sy:updatePeriod unknown
  This is caused by <rss version="2.0" xmlns:sy="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/"> missing in the first few lines.

EDIT: Found the issue: The namespaces used (sy & dc) should be imported - or removed in the rss completely:
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:sy="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/">

Thanks for pointing that out. I corrected it as well as all the recommendations from RSS validator... It was a bit painful but it is done.

It's now working in other RSS readers.

Yes, it is now working in Firefox for me too. Thanks!

I must say that this feature is top notch! First time using RSS feed and liking it very much. 😄 No longer having to open the PARTS section to check for additions.
Just one small note, the linked page is the french version. Not a big problem as I can read French fairly well but I still prefer the page in English. Is it a setting one can change?

Hello,
Where did you find the link that brought you to the french version? I did not manage to find it yet 😉

Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. The wink emoticon confuses me... 😦

Anyway, the link from the post above (and the RSS button in parts section) redirects to http://www.mecabricks.com/parts/rss which has a lot of links with www.mecabricks.com/fr/(...)

No actually I wasn't. I did not understand that it was the links inside the rss. I thought it was a link to the rss content with french names.
Actually, it is not supposed to be! I will check the code tonight to correct that. Thank you for spotting it.

Fixed.

Oh. bad phrasing from my part 😃

Thanks for fixing it. As a consequence I had 29 new items in the feed. lol 😄
