RSS Menu

Posted on |



RSS Menu is a systemwide menu that allows you to read and organize your favourite RSS or Atom feeds. The articles are automatically updated and you will get a notification when new articles are available or when some other event occurs. Many Web sites are frequently updated, such as news headlines and blog entries. These kinds of sites offer a feature called RSS feeds, which they use to send you the updates automatically. RSS feeds are a great way to easily keep track of changes to your favorite blog or stay up to date on current. Click and drag the RSS Items block into your layout. On the Content tab, choose Custom from the RSS Items Style drop-down menu. Excerpts, Titles Only, and Full Content pull in preset RSS merge tags. Select show the markup to see the code that creates the preset content. Absolutley excellent RSS reader service with one absolutely huge glaring flaw. There is a button on the context menu that marks ALL feeds globally as read. This is easily accessible to accidentally click on and one would not expect a context menu action to affect anything besides what was actually clicked on. (A single feed.).

Description

This WordPress Plugin allows you to present a menu with multiple RSS feed subscription option to your site’s visitors in addition to your normal RSS subscription option.

If your site covers multiple topics then your subscribed readers may get annoyed when you update your site with content that they are not interested in and they get a notification in their RSS reader.

RSS

I found that most of the time I never subscribe to a site’s RSS feed when it doesn’t have the topic/category specific subscription option, specially when the site covers multiple topics cause I don’t like to be hammered with all the unwanted content updates.

This plugin allows you to show category specific RSS feed for all your categories. Alternatively, you can configure up to 8 different custom topic specific RSS feeds.

RSS Feed for Your Tags

You can also create a tag specific RSS feed menu using this plugin. Create an rss feed menu for all of your tags on the blog using a simple shortcode.

There is an option to create a tag cloud with RSS feed of each tag also.

What is RSS?

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It's an easy way for you to keep up with news and information that's important to you, and helps you avoid the conventional methods of browsing or searching for information on websites. Now the content you want can be delivered directly to you without cluttering your inbox with e-mail messages. This content is called a 'feed.'

RSS is written in the Internet coding language known as XML (eXtensible Markup Language).

What Is an RSS Reader?

An RSS reader is a small software program that collects and displays RSS feeds. It allows you to scan headlines from a number of news sources in a central location.

Where Can I Get an RSS Reader?

Some browsers, such as the current versions of Firefox and Safari have built in RSS readers. If you're using a browser that doesn't currently support RSS, there are a variety of RSS readers available on the web; some are free to download and others are available for purchase.

How Do I Use RSS Feeds?

The first step is to choose an RSS reader. Each reader has a slightly different way of adding a new feed, also called a 'channel.' Follow the directions for your reader but, in most cases, here's how it works:

  • Click on the link or small RSS icon or link near the content you want. For example, on the bottom right of the uscourts.gov: Newsroom. You'll see a page displaying XML code.
  • From your web browser's address bar, copy the URL (web address). For example, the URL you would copy for uscourts.gov: Newsroom is: http://news.uscourts.gov/feed.
  • Paste that URL into the 'Add New Channel' section of the reader. The RSS feed will start to display and regularly update the headlines for you.
