XML document from categories

  • Hello Community,

    I’ve been searching for a means to create dynamic XML files from certain categories and I haven’t found the solution yet.

    This is for a Newspaper style site.

    So, as an example, I have a category for NEW PRODUCTS. I need an XML document specifically for the category “New Products” that is propagated live as stories are added to it.

    Any help?

    Sincerely,
    Greg

    You basically want feed output saved to a file. You could request the feed via code, capturing the output to a buffer instead of outputting it. Then simply write the buffer content to a file.

    Hello bcworkz,

    Unfortunately (for me) – this is way out of my scope of ability.

    It seems like you’re saying that it would have to be uniquly coded. I’m surprised a plugin hasn’t been developed for this yet. I’d think it would come up a lot for WP users.

    Of course there are a lot of plugins that create XML files – but they are targeted to SEO. None are creating unique XML documents based on the category IDs.

    Thank you for your reply, bcworkz.

    Sincerely,
    Greg
