What's an RSS feed? RSS is a method for subscribing to changes made on
your wiki so you can see what has changed more easily. Most web browsers include RSS readers, and generally
show a feed icon somewhere near the address bar (the icon is orange in most browsers, but it's blue in Safari.)
When you click this icon, you'll see a list of available
feeds.
For more information, click RRS feed on the Settings page.
Template You can create a template
page for students. Create the page information
and tag the page template (note the lower case!)
When you go back to Create a Page, scroll down beyond the pbwiki templates to select the radio button beside your template.
