Hi Alexandru,
Many thanks for your information.
It looks the activity stream extension is one that meets my requirement.
However, I am total new to xwiki and I couldn’t find the page or url the get the notification of activity stream.
I have tried to add {{activity /}} in a new page by guidiance of activity stream extension and get all updates. But It makes me feelingl like building the wheel again.
Is there an existing page the hold all current wiki updates for RSS?

thank in advance.

Hi,

You can create a new page and add the Activity macro (located under the XWiki Macro, while the page is in edit mode). The next step will display the macro’s options and you can check the RSS one. This will append the RSS link at the end of the Activity Stream section from the page. The link will be something like http://127.0.0.1:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebRss?xpage=plain&outputSyntax=plain. So the page that holds the updates is Main/WebRss, which also needs the query string ?xpage=plain&outputSyntax=plain to show the updates.

Hope this helps!

Hi Alexandru,

Your solution works for me.
I wanna go forward one more step, I hope I could get the page content also with RSS notification. It seems that the Acitivity Stream does not provide such parameter to fulfill my task.
Could you please give me some piece of advice about how to achieve my goal?

Thanks in advance.

According to http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Activity%20Macro the Activity Macro has a “rss” param.

Hi Ecaterina,

Is it possible to get full text rss feed?
Another problem is that I can get users list and their operations and superadmin’s pages are filtered out properly when I view the WebRss page, but I can only get last user name without operation and superadmin’s pages are not filtered yet via RSS. Can I use wildcard or not operator in parameter author of active stream macro?
After deleting some pages, I notice that deletion will not be included in RSS. Is it possible to include deleted page also?
Beside above questions I wonder whether it is possible to get the old and new titles after title of document is changed?
On page RSS Feeds only mentions it is possible to customize, but no concrete steps or guidance.
thx a lot.
