New Message: Need Simple Solution - not RSS

[Ryan Hale]

Hi Melissa -

I use the {viewOpml} macro somewhat regularly for this application.  My 
understanding is that every story in a Manila site also produces an 
accompanying .opml file which can be found by going to that story and simply 
adding the .opml extension to the URL.  

Here is information on that macro:

Hope that helps -

Ryan
