I've set up my headlines here: www.anabaptist.co.uk/aggregator.php.

But what I'd love to be able to do is provide an RSS for that page (or, in reality, to all of my subscriptions). Can I do that?

That way, someone could subscribe to my entire list of subscriptions and be informed when any one is updated.

Our blogroll will do this for you.  The process to set this up is very similar to headlines.

What is a blogroll? It is common for weblog publishers (bloggers) to list on their web page the weblogs that they subscribe to. This list is called a "blogroll" and it facilitates networking in the weblog community (the "blogosphere") as well as provide weblog readers with links to information that they might also enjoy.

How do I use blogroll settings? The blogroll settings page enables Web Edition to automatically generate a blogroll for your page. Your blogroll will be generated by Web Edition to reflect all your current subscriptions for a given location. Simply check the box on the location's blogroll configuration page and enter a template to specify how you would like your blogroll to appear. The template you enter will be used to render each subscription for your blogroll. After you have entered and saved your template, just copy the script reference listed on the blogroll settings page and paste it into your web site's HTML and your blogroll will be generated automatically by Web Edition. For an example of this, see http://www.rassoc.com/gregr/weblog - the generated blogroll is shown on the right side of the page.

Thanks, Ronnie, but that's not what I had in mind. (I knew I wasn't explaining myself very well!)

What I'm after is, basically, an RSS feed of my Newsgator online page. For example, Blogdigger Groups allows you to publish an RSS feed of your aggregator. That way, someone could take that RSS and put it in their Bloglines subscriptions and then when any of the blogs in your aggregator are updated, they get notified.

Basically allows them to subscribe to all the blogs in your aggregator simply by subscribing to the aggregator.

Is that possible with NewsGator?

Ahh, Making your OPML list public.

You can do this on Your Location's page as well by clicking on the OPML (subscription list) link located in the same location as your Headlines and BlogRoll.

You can expose the feeds mapped to a particular location by going to the "Edit Locations" page, and selecting the "OPML" option. The public URL for the OPML is shown when you choose this option.

On the "Edit Locations" page, you can easily tell which locations are publicly exposed as the phrase "public" or "private" will be displayed next to the OPML link.

Is that what your looking for?

No, sorry! 8-|

This might help me clarify things a bit. I set-up an aggregator at Blogdigger that lists the latest posts from 20 or so blogs that I am intereted in. However, it also provides an RSS feed for that list.

So, I can give that feed to someone, who can then add it to their NewsGator list. They, in effect, then automatically subscribe to those 20 blogs just by subscribing to this 1 feed that Blogdigger creates.

I understand now.  Unfortunately we don't yet provide that ability on the rss feed or blog level, but I will make this a feature request because that would be very handy indeed.

Ah, drat. It would've been a great feature. For some reason, I can't get my OPML list to import into Bloglines, but this would've been great for more reasons than that.

I'll keep an eye out for future developments.

Thanks.
