Question on custom RSS feed...

lmooney1028 · 08-04-2012, 05:32 AM

Hi Guys,

I.m looking for some information and figured that the guys in here are the best people to speak to.

I need a way to use an RSS feed to show information from a wordpress post onto a mobile website.

I do not want the RSS feed to simply display the title of a post with a link back to the actual page (which i think is what is standard), i want the rss feed to "grab" the content (words and/or pictures) from inside the post and display that within the rss feed inside the mobile website template. I do not wnat it to link back to the wordpress site.

If this cannot be done using an RSS feed then i am open to other methods that i can achieve this. Possible some form of "auto-content"/"auto-blogging" solution that people used to use back in the day?

Any ideas?

I believe it can be done by creating a customised RSS template - kind of like an RSS agregator. I'm unsure on this though and was hoping there'd be some smart guys on here that can enlighten me.

To enable full-text feeds, in your WP admin area, go to Settings > Reading and then for the item labelled "For each article in a feed, show" - check the Full Text radio button.

This will cause your WP to produce a full-text feed.

You can then customize the rss feed however you want, such as removing the permalink back to the original article - a good place to start is at Customizing Feeds « WordPress Codex

Yeah, i know about the full text option. but it only ever seems to show a specific amount before providing a link to the source website (something which i don't want).

Cheers for the link - i should have though to look there! I'll be back and post here if i can figure out a way to do it.

You can use third party software like FeedForAll Create RSS Feeds, Edit and Publish News Feeds with Software to create, edit your RSS feed. It can contain whatever you like.
