RSS feed help

**deronsizemore** · 03-23-2007, 11:32 AM

I guess this is the correct place to put this topic? If not, feel free to move it.

Anyway,

I see a lot of RSS Feeds (most all of them) will have the title of the article and then blow that in smaller letters it will have "From site_name by author_name".

With the feed code below, how and where would I put the code to do this?

Code:

item>
      <title>{exp:xml_encode}{title}{/exp:xml_encode}</title>
      <link>{title_permalink=site/index}</link>
      <guid>{title_permalink=site/index}#When:{gmt_entry_date format="%H:%i:%sZ"}</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[{featured_summary}]]></description>
      <dc:subject>{exp:xml_encode}{categories backspace="1"}{category_name}, {/categories}{/exp:xml_encode}</dc:subject>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[{featured_body}]]></content:encoded>
      <dc:date>{gmt_entry_date format="%Y-%m-%dT%H:%i:%s%Q"}</dc:date>
    </item>

Where: See above ^^

Yes, GO BUCKS!

I'm not quite sure I understand your response though. "Edit which page you like the feed to appear"...what does that mean?

Maybe my initial question was not clear. When I test my feed and use Google Reader, or FeedReader (the two I use) every other feed I have subscribe to has the title of the blog entry and then direction below that it will have a line that usually says the site name and then the author of the post. I'm not sure how to add this line into my feed code?

I think what you are looking for is the title, link, description, etc. These are not dependent on the post and are usually specified at the top of the feed before each of the items. Look at the source of any existing feed to get the idea.

For example from the blog of this site:

Code:

<channel>
	<title>Website Publisher Blog</title>
	<link>http://www.websitepublisher.net/blog</link>
	<description>Website Promotion, Generating Revenue, Website Management</description>
	<pubDate>Fri, 23 Mar 2007 00:50:32 +0000</pubDate>
	<generator>http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0</generator>
	<language>en</language>
	<item>

	</item>
