temporarily turn off rss

Perhaps setting the number of feeds to 0 for a while could work?

how does one do that Moxie?

does anyone know how to do that

there has got to be a quick way to turn off RSS while i add new pages. anyone? i resorted to editing the time stamp of posts to days ago before i move them to today.
but that doesn’t work for pages.

Pages don’t have feeds.
You should really get famiilar with your own admin panel when you start using a new software. It sould save you a lot of time (and bandwidth here): Options > Reading.

of course! i got a pretty good handle on wordpress most of the time but from time to time i forget the most obvious things and moshu i feel pretty bad about it. sorry :)!

but thank you for the response!

I do actually need to turn off RSS feeds. I have a client who can not legally distribute their content until the user has been signed in.

WordPress is still the ideal system for my client, but I’m very hesitant to use it if I can’t control the syndication comletely. Setting the syndication to 1 post and a summary listing still leaves my client liable.

I have not been able to find a method or plugin to be able to completely disable this. Will simply deleteing ‘feed.php’ and all the accompanying feed php files harm the install in anyway?
