Information about the RSS feed for Wendover Parish Council

To keep website users up to date with the latest additions we have introduced an RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed. Users who take this News Feed will receive periodic notice about updates, mainly Agendas and Minutes, as soon as they are published.

Look out for the RSS link icon:

http://www.wendover-pc.gov.uk/RSSfeed/newinfo.xml Copy and paste or drag the URL of this link into your News Reader window

This link is known as the Wendover PC 'channel'.

Then, when your News Reader is activated (either automatically or manually, however you set it) the Wendover PC channel is examined to see if it has been updated since last examined. If new content is present then the headers to the new version are fetched to your News Reader. You can then choose to fetch the full detail or not.

If, over time, you find you are no longer interested in Wendover PC feeds then you simply remove the Wendover PC channel from your News Reader channels list.
