Blog/Forum/Database/RSS Integration

[David Thomson]

Hi folks, a little help would be great, I am kind of pulling my hair out.
 

I may just be confused, but, I am sure I had an RSS feed to a blog, posting in the forum.  Is this possible?  If so, how, maybe I switched something off at some layer but there dont seem to be many settings at all for blogs.

 

It seems easy enough to have a database share an entry to a forum, and have the comments show in both the database record and the forum, but cant get an RSS feed to the database.  Any way of doing this instead?

I will preempt the inevitable 'Why newbie, why?' with what may, in the end, be a dumb reason anyway... I want to be able to go back to the RSS feed(s) at regular intervals and select the highest rated content for that period.

Thanks in advance,
