• Ok, im not the expert in wordpress, so please excuse me if this question has been posted already 100 times. (or maybe not)

    I have a blog whit lots of different posts and what i’m looking for is to provide RSS feeds for each post, not the comments and not the hole blog page.

    cuz now i’m able to provide feeds for the comments of each post or the whole blog including all posts.

    example:
    -John subscribes to the post america (not the comments)
    -Frank subscribes to the post asia (not the comments)
    -Peter subscribes to the post europe (not the comments)
    I don’t want that John gets the updates of the posts from asia and europe.

    please help or at least give a link with a solution.

  • I believe that you’re talking about categories, not posts. Posts are single entries into the WordPress CMS, whereas categories are collections of posts that in some way share a topic.

    E.g. You write 3 separate posts, about GM, AIG, and JPMorgan Chase; you’d tag them all in the “Bailout” category of your blog.

    Depending on how you’ve setup your permalinks (in Options in your Admin panel) this will give John, Frank, and Peter what they’d like to read:

    https://yourblog.com/feed/categoryslug

    A complete options post from someone’s blog outlines the various rss links you could provide: https://my-web-solutions.blogspot.com/2008/05/wordpress-rss-category-feed.html

    The slug is set on the Category page and usually defaults to a lowercase version of the word; if a phrase, spaces will be hypenated. E.g. “Bailout” category name will automatically be entered as “bailout” slug, unless you changed it manually. “Dancing Bears” will be “dancing-bears.”

    Hope this helps!

    Cheers.

    I run a WordPress blog and need to provide rss feeds for individual posts. I’ve been thinking that I could edit feed-rss2-comments.php since I don’t use comments anyway. Can you advise me on how to create a feed for single posts? Basically, I need the posts in their entirety as rss in order to deliver to mobile phones.
