RSS Content
elgrob - February 4, 2009 - 19:20
Hello - How do I control what goes into my site's feed? I would like to either have multiple feeds based on category or content type or at the least be able to exclude certain types of content from my feed.
Thanks for any help.

You can add custom feeds by using the http://drupal.org/project/views module by enabling the "views rss" module and using an "rss" view style.

Thanks very much.
Thanks very much.
Lilttle more info?
Thanks for this, I've been wondering the same. Can you tell me how this relates to the Syndicate module? Must I have Syndicate module turned on, then use views?
Also, I have a view which lists certain content types in a table. I'd like to add that content to the main RSS feed, but it doesn't show up. I'm also unclear about adding RSS to an existing view (with arguments), vs. creating a new view which displays the page as RSS (as opposed to a table). This still doesn't make sense to me.
Any place to find docs?
Thanks,
Joel
Thanks!

Assuming you mean the http://drupal.org/project/syndication module, sorry I have no clue. You'll have to test it and see.
afaik, the main rss feed is pretty much 'as is'-- the only options available are at admin/content/rss-publishing.
As for views rss, you can't add rss to an existing view-- you need to make a view that uses the rss views style.
The documentation for views is linked directly from the views project page.
