Feedsmith in WP 2.8 – multiple feeds? Don’t need htaccess?

  • Hi there. Just signed up with Feedburner for my site, and installed Feedsmith to go along with it.

    As I understand it, this plugin negates the need for me to edit .htaccess to redirect the feed URLs, right? I don’t see how that works.. there does not appear to be any difference from when I activate it, or deactivate it.

    WordPress is still publishing https://www.sitename.com/feed/ as the url in either case – is that the desired function? That feed does not redirect or anything upon clicking..

    Another item – I want to use Feedsmith for my comments feed as well – yet it only seems to work for one feed.

    I don’t understand how this is THE solution for Feedburner and WP – 2 year old plugin, and most links to its support point to a 404!

    oh hmm, now https://www.sitename.com/feed/ IS indeed redirecting to feedburner ?? . looks like some caching.

    still though, how do I add a second feed?

    Here is the link to the updated Feedsmith plugin, at least I believe it is… Google took it over when they bought out Feedburner… I installed it and I’m having the same problem you had its not redirecting my https://www.sitename.com/feed/ … What do you mean it looks like some caching issue??

    Oh haha, I see what you mean… I just grew a brain after I posted that and deleted all my internet history, cache, and the like and the problem is fixed!

    Hi,

    I hope someone is still checking in here. My website has two feed links. One that I programed manually to direct to feedburner and the one the feedsmith is supposed to redirect (upper right hand corner, says “podcast”).

    goduckspodcast.com

    The link just absolutely refuses to redirect. If I can’t figure it out soon I’m going to have to remove it… I only want people subscribing through feedburner.

    HELP!
